In this video, I'll share some of my top picks when it comes to field watches, from the affordable all the way up to the world of luxury watches.

Thanks for this, Teddy. I love my field / military watches. Really enjoying this “best of” series of videos. Looking forward to a GMT rundown.

@myhandlewastakenandIgaveup Год назад

Ignoring Quartz in the field watch category is a shame bc it (unlike dress watches) is a category where the inherent durability of quartz is quite usefull.

@seren1ty755 11 месяцев назад

At that point I’d just get a Casio digital quartz watch if I cared at all about that.

I agree. The Longines VHP is a favorite of mine in the mostly-affordable field watch category. It's on par, in terms of performance, with my quartz Grand Seiko that is several times more expensive.

@larryleyba6496 3 года назад

I have had the Orient Defender II for about a week now and I adore it. This is my 6th Orient and although I really like my Kamasu and my Ranger I think this one is my favorite. It's my second field watch and I am really beginning to love this thing. I recently bought a Phoibos Voyager and a long island homage to the original Monster all within the last month and this is by far my favorite of my three new watches.

As a Correctional Officer and Wildland Firefighter my go to watch was actually a Timex Expedition. As My taste and progressed I went with a Seiko SNK809. Since my eyes have gone a bit downhill I currently wear a Victorinox Field Force 42mm. The visibility and ruggedness is unparalleled. Triple anti reflective sapphire and quartz movement are unbeatable.

@loganholmberg2295 3 года назад

Yeah I actually end up wearing Protreks in the woods or on the water. They are just so useful compared to a basic field watch. Not that I don't wear those too. There is something to be said for having something just simple for keeping time.

@karlsenula9495 Год назад

@mannytafuerte Год назад

All luxury sport watches fail as what ever they’re engineered to be. A luxury watch serves one purpose and its to make you feel good. No one goes spelunking with Rolex Explorer II, no one dives with a Submariner, no one times race laps with a Daytona, no one works near radioactive material with a Milgauss. All luxury watches fail at their intent if you think their intent is to fulfill their design purpose.

Great video. Nice shots! One suggestion is the Archimede Outdoor 39. Another great value German watch. Damasko used to be a great value. They now have an in-house movement. The power reserve is not much better than the ETA and Selita movements they used before. The prices jumped about $400. More in line with with Sinn pricing. Not as much of a value now.

@malikknows3510 2 года назад

Very nice video. Very pleased to see you recommend the Sinn 556 in the field watch category. I use a tegimented Sinn 856 UTC for a field watch. I love it. Deployed troops need to keep track of what time it is back home, too! Glad to see that Railmaster on the list, too, as I agree it is a great field watch alternative. Let me add a note of caution about IWC's in the field. I had a chrono I deployed with to Iraq and its water resistance was not enough to keep dust and dirt out of the case. Got a really nasty note from IWC that I was using the watch inappropriately! As a result, I really look for strong water resistance and 200M is not excessive, at least IMHO.

@marcgirard7551 3 года назад

I think the Sinn 556 is the standout for me in this review as the best balanced choice in this video. Great piece for a good price and I feel like it can even make it in dressier circumstances especially if you pop on a nice black leather strap.

@jpdemer5 Год назад

Prices are getting up there, but I agree it's a great choice, especially for a one-watch "collection". It looks great no matter where you go or what you're wearing.

@jeffk1485 2 года назад

It's funny how actual military use and what people think military use is differs. During my 8 years, most military members (of various branches) usually wore G-Shocks or other Casio analogs, and those that strayed from that were usually all Quartz, with the top end being eco-drives, etc. Military people don't get paid a lot. They need a watch that's rugged, accurate, and no-fuss. Very rare is the military member who wears some bougey Hamilton when getting down to business. Actual cash value: $0.02.

I'd like to give a little love to the quartz side of the aisle. My Citizen Garrison Eco Drive is close to ideal. White numerals on a black face with 12 and 24 hour indicators. Under $200 and accurate to >+2 seconds/month. My main gripes are the day/date window is a little on the small side and they chose to polish most of the case. They didn't finish the case sides to a high level so the bright finish looks like chrome plating on a car bumper (aside from being too reflective for a military watch). It's great for a work watch, though. Light, low profile, easy to read, rugged as hell, and a flat crystal. Note: the military lads and lassies I know are more likely to wear a $40 Casio G-Shock, Timex Ironman, or similar if going out on a real op or patrol. I grew up and served in an analog world so that's what I wear.

@jeffersonmp7846 2 года назад

@loganholmberg2295 3 года назад

I own some of these and they don't hold a candle to an ani-dig solar-powered Casio Protrek for actually wearing something in the field. They are light, tough, always legible and the sensor features like barometer and compass are intensely useful. I love my Seiko Prospex with the sun compass and my Momentum fieldwalker but they are not even close to as comfortable as a Protrek when you're out in the sun. Plus I think the PRW-6600Y-1A9CR and the newer titanium protrek look really nice. Suit nice probably not I'd wear one anywhere. But if you like mechanical field watches. Hey more power to you. I still wear mine even though I've fallen in love with Protrek.👍 The only bad thing I have to say is like Seiko Casio please get rid of the bloody numbers and give us some names! Every time I talk about either's watches I feel like ... no have to look in a manual to look up model numbers.

@mikesey1 2 года назад

The basic casio is probably the best field watch, in actual field. It is more accurate with time. It can be read faster when even seconds matter. Easier to read when for example waking up for a fire watch. In Finland we call it "intti rolex". Which basically translates to "military rolex."

Muhle of Glasshutte makes a beautiful 29er that I would consider part of this group. They have a long history in nautical clock making and now have begun to make watches.

Recently went to Macy’s to scope out what watches they carry and found they showcase MVMT watches. Curious of your thoughts on this.

Really the only field watch that is iconic is the Hamilton Khaki field mechanical. It’s a no 🧠 brainer. At around $400 why even look at the others.

I have the Sinn556i and honestly the bracelet clasp does not bother me and it fits so well, anyway I will be getting a tropical and nato for it soon for the holidays when that happens.
