Minimal field watch

$680
Timepiece of the month

The field watch, reconsidered.

A small-batch tribute to the 1960s American field watch — 38mm matte case, Super-LumiNova arabic numerals, and a 24-hour inner track read in a single glance. Mounted on saddle leather, hand-finished in Vermont.

"It is the kind of watch you forget you are wearing — until someone asks where you got it."

Four ways to keep time.

Each movement is its own discipline. Find the one that fits how you live.

Mechanical

Hand-wound. The connoisseur's choice — feel each click of the crown, watch the balance wheel breathe through a sapphire case-back.

Quartz

Battery-driven precision. Slim cases, +/- 15 seconds per month, low maintenance. The right tool for travel and chronograph use.
