Military and urban men’s apparel and footwear company Nigel Cabourn just dropped a reissue of its first Timex collab from 2018, and the result is a great small-diameter field watch with some unique touches. The timepiece is inspired by Vietnam-era photojournalist Sean Flynn. The low-key 36mm stainless steel case gets a truly handsome dial with a broad arrow 12 marker, white Arabic numerals and hands, an olive green minute track, and an orange second hand. The quartz-powered watch is capped off with tough mineral crystal, and the unique Nato strap uses Ventile fabric for excellent water resistance and resilience.
