Breed
A nine-link bracelet holds a modern version of a
classic tonneau case enhanced with bolsters top
and bottom on the all-steel Ray by Breed. Easy
to wear at 40mm, these watches feature large
luminescent numerals that surround the date
pointer, moonphase and month displays on the
dial. Rated to 5atm. A little hunting will find you
this vintage look for less than $300.
The Fifth
Clean and slim with a minimalist design,
watches from The Fifth are only available on the
fifth of each month, so plan ahead as you can
pre-order. If you like a slim no-nonsense look,
the Soho and Broadway watches, at only 6mm
tall (pictured above) will fit under any sleeve yet
retain a modern breadth at 41mm wide. With
prices ranging from $95 to $150 you can guess
that there is a quartz movement inside and a
mineral (hardened) crystal on top. Splash resistant to 5atm (better than 3atm!), both versions
pictured are supplied with two straps for $150
and available at www.the5th.co
Timex Houndstooth
Felt & leather straps match the accents on the Indiglo on-demand lighting system dial in a playful take on
a casual look that make a perfect match for fall and winter attire. $80 at www.timex.com
