Key Features

• Vintage Field Watch Design – Drawing inspiration from classic American military timepieces, this watch features a compass bezel and angled lugs that echo traditional field watch styling. The overall aesthetic honors functional design heritage while maintaining a clean, modern presence on the wrist.
• Illuminated Black Dial – The deep black dial enhances contrast for improved readability, and the integrated lume function allows the display to light up instantly when needed. This feature ensures you can check the time clearly in dimly lit environments, such as during night hikes, early commutes, or power outages.
• Day and Date Display – A practical day/date complication is prominently positioned on the dial, offering immediate access to calendar information. This eliminates the need to reach for a phone or planner, adding everyday convenience for scheduling and time management.
• Bold Numerals for Enhanced Legibility – Large, clearly defined numerals stand out against the black background, supporting quick and accurate time reading. This design choice reflects the watch’s field watch roots, where clarity under pressure is essential.
• 316L Stainless Steel Case – The case is constructed from 316L stainless steel, a high-grade material known for its corrosion resistance and durability. This ensures the watch maintains its polished appearance over time, even with daily wear and exposure to environmental elements.
• Durable Black Nylon Pass-Through Strap – The black nylon strap uses a pass-through design that allows for a secure, adjustable fit. This style not only enhances comfort during extended wear but also resists moisture and abrasion, making it suitable for physical activity, travel, or outdoor use.
