While the somewhat proforma iterations in standard charcoal and ash grey will appeal to the more conservative crown-twisting crowd , watch fans looking to add a bit of bold to their own dreams of field watches will love these striking new colors from Formex .
Housed in a 41mm hardened titanium case , Formex ’ s new Field automatic takes on a funkified retro look with a modern appeal by incorporating Petrol Blue , Mahogany Red , Sage Green , and Ultra Violet dial options to create a tension between homage and “ oh my ”.
Rated to 150 meters of water resistance and featuring a screw-down crown and an anti-reflective sapphire on top , the hardened housing hosts a Swiss Sellita SW 200-1 automatic winding movement ticking away at 28,800 vph with a power reserve of 41 hours when fully wound . Both NATO and leather strap options are available - as is the Formex patented micro-adjust carbon composite clasp .
Prices range from $ 795 on the NATO to $ 945 on a fine leather strap .
