Field watches

Reliable companions for every adventure.


Whether hiking in the mountains, on expeditions or in everyday life - a robust watch that can withstand the elements is essential for outdoor enthusiasts.
Outdoor watches are specially developed for demanding environments and offer a combination of durability, functionality and reliability. But what features characterize a real outdoor watch?

Robust materials
and durability


An outdoor watch has to withstand a lot. That's why their cases are often made of particularly durable materials such as titanium or stainless steel, which are both corrosion-resistant and shockproof. The glass also plays an important role: sapphire crystal is particularly scratch-resistant and ensures a clear view of the dial, even in harsh conditions.

Waterproofing
for any terrain


Weather changes, sudden rain or contact with water are not uncommon in outdoor use. An outdoor watch should therefore be water-resistant to at least 10 ATM (100 m) in order to survive swimming or heavy rain without any problems. For even more extreme uses, there are models with 20 ATM or more, which are even suitable for water sports or diving.

Good readability in
all lighting conditions


In the great outdoors, visibility is not always optimal. This is why large hands, high contrasts and a strong luminous material are essential. High-quality outdoor watches rely on Swiss Super-LumiNova®, which ensures long-lasting and bright luminescence - ideal for twilight or complete darkness.

Example:
The ProTrail Sand.

Outdoor expertise on the wrist.


A fitting example of a modern outdoor watch is the ProTrail Sand from the CiRCULA collection. This watch combines a scratch-resistant., extremely robust stainless steel case with 200 meters (20 ATM) water resistance, making it suitable for both demanding outdoor activities and water sports. Thanks to Swiss Super-LumiNova®, readability is guaranteed even in complete darkness. In addition, the screw-down crown system ensures reliable resistance to dust, water and shocks - essential properties for any outdoor adventure.

Conclusion


A genuine outdoor watch is not only suitable for extreme adventures, but is also a reliable companion in everyday life. It combines durability with practical functions and still remains comfortable on the wrist. So if you are looking for a watch that can keep up with any challenge, you should look for a robust design, water resistance and good readability - whether in the mountains, in the water or in the urban jungle.
