Finding an affordable watch that’s made of high quality materials and capable of looking good year round is a difficult task. If you haven’t quite filled that niche in your collection yet, or you’re looking to expand, check out these military inspired offerings from French brand Briston. Using natural, hypoallergenic acetate (the same types you find in high-end eyewear frames) as the base, Briston creates 40mm x 40mm cases in a number of colors that are polished to an almost glassy finish over a period of 4 days. Once the case is done, it’s paired with either a Miyota 2315 movement (Clubmaster HMS models) or a Miyota OS21 movement (Clubmaster Chronograph Date Models) and one of their many nylon NATO strap options. There are more color options available than a Crayola Big Box, but each one of these watches also comes with a two year warranty.
