When you want quality, understated elegance, and simplicity in a watch you don’t go modern, you go vintage. When you want all of those things at a price that won’t make your head – or wallet – hurt, you go vintage “inspired.” The LL Bean Vintage Field Watch goes back to basics by telling you the time and the date. You won’t find a compass, multiple time zones, or a breathalyzer on this watch, but for less than $100 you won’t even notice they’re missing.
