Seasoned watchmakers Smith & Bradley think everyone deserves a quality everyday timepiece. They designed their newest offering, the Springfield, to be a handsome, reliable tool watch you can actually afford. It's their modern revival of the classic American field watch fitted with a dependable Swiss quartz movement. At 48mm, it's big, it's bold, and it means business. It features a domed sapphire crystal, large arabic markers, and lengthy hands, resulting in exceptional clarity and legibility. Other details round out both the function and form of the watch, like an enlarged crown, 24 hour markers, date window, 10 ATM water resistance, and Superluminova coating. And of course, the watch is built in Illinois for that made in America quality and authenticity. Head over to their Kickstarter below to secure one in your choice of stainless steel or PVD-coated finish on a black, tan, or green Cordura strap.

I love this brand, my husband and his boss just started selling this in his firearms store. They are a great everyday watch.
