The Vero x Windup Watch Shop Century 38mm LE Watches ($1120) are automatic, winding timepieces with a Sellita SW 210 movement that delivers exceptional timekeeping and accuracy. The have a 100m water resistance and a USA-Made case, dial and crown. Both these limited edition watches have their own unique sense of style and will add a touch of Don Draper-esque dapperness to your wrist in 2020.
First up, the The Peak is an adventure-field watch, which takes inspiration from elevation and achievement. The case is hand-finished, showing off titanium’s more sophisticated side. The dial is crisp white with dark blue numerals and heat blued Alpha hands that come to a remarkably thin point. Handsome and refined, the Peak works just as well with a blazer as jeans. Moving onto the Granite, which is a military/hiking-field watch, that is inspired by the warm earth tones it’s designed to be used in. The dial is muted grey with white numerals and ochre accents on the text and minute/second track. It is masculine and outdoorsy, and best worn with hard wearing materials and dark tones.
