The Swatch brand of affordable watches bowed back in 1983 to save the prestigious but struggling SMH, or what would become known as the Swatch Group (the parent company of the likes of Omega, Blancpain, Longines, and Hamilton), from an untimely death. The line of fashion-focused affordable quartz watches brand “Swatch” or “S Watch” has now sold in the hundreds of millions of units and stands as an iconic brand. The new Bau Collection celebrates the 100th anniversary of German Bauhaus design with 25 different models inspired by art. From wacky to sporty and everything in between, the line boasts different sizes and prices, as well as quartz and automatic movements.

Vaer has been one of our favorite watchmakers for as long as we can remember because they produce new, classic watches based on iconic designs. Case in point, the Vaer G5 Meridian watch you see here. This timepiece is a 1950s-inspired 20ATM automatic watch that’s USA-assembled, dual timezone, built with ocean-ready functionality, self-winding and the brand’s first true GMT (the latest version of their core dive watch design). What’s more, it pays homage to other watches that are incredibly more expensive or hard to come by whilst also adding new aspects that makes this Vaer G5 Meridian watch more desirable than the other options in our opinion.
