Description

SUMMARY: This is the new solar-powered version of our popular Korean War field watch, which was first introduced into the Vaer lineup in 2021. Why have we transitioned to solar? In our opinion, solar movements provide the best of both worlds - perpetual timekeeping with incredible accuracy. Six hours of sunlight will provide six months of power reserve, and the watch can run off any light source (even candlelight). In terms of aesthetics, the C3 Korean Field stands out in the Vaer line-up as a modern homage to service watches worn by allied soldiers in the Korean War in the 1950s. As a C3 model, this watch is part of our all-time bestselling collection, distinguished by its ocean-ready functionality, low-profile case design, ultra-accurate solar quartz movement, and full USA assembly. WHO IS THIS WATCH FOR? We recommend the C3 for those seeking a dependable tool watch that can also be dressed up for more formal occasions. The perpetual timekeeping function of a solar-powered quartz watch makes it the perfect fit for an everyday wearer, and the 36mm case sizing is great option for those with smaller wrists, or who prefer a more vintage on-wrist presence reminiscent of the 1950s and 1960s. INSPIRATION: In building the C3 Korean Field our goal was to bring attention to the Korean War, and deliver a more affordable counterpart to our WWII-inspired automatic A12 Dirty Dozen. In addition to historically accurate dial design, the caseback on this model features a unique deep-etched engraving. Replacing the Vaer logo at the center is an etching of the Korean Peninsula which serves as a reminder of the sacrifice and commitment of thousands of allied soldiers who served in the conflict, and the countless casualties resulting from the war. Since its original launch, the Korean Field has earned a permanent place in the Vaer lineup thanks to its combination of "set-it-and-forget-it" outdoor functionality and a connection to the iconic history of military timekeeping.

C3 Dirty Dozen - 36mm Ameriquartz

SUMMARY: This is the new Ameriquartz-powered version of our military inspired A12 Dirty Dozen field watch, which was first introduced into the Vaer lineup in 2019. Why have we transitioned to Ameriquartz? If you’ve been following Vaer for a few years, you’ll probably recognize the term Ameriquartz. Between 2020 and 2023, we sold over ten thousand Ameriquartz watches across the C3 and C5 lineup. Last year we transitioned the core of our USA-assembled quartz models (ex. C5 Tactical) to solar movements. However, we always intended to keep the option of a USA-built movement alive within the Vaer lineup. We believe the C3/C5 Dirty Dozen is the perfect design to re-introduce this unique movement option into the Vaer lineup. While it is a quartz watch, and it’s not Swiss, in our opinion, by leveraging hand-built Ameriquartz movements, the C3/C5 Dirty Dozen represent a continuation of the historical craftsmanship of the original World War II models. As a C3 model, this watch is part of our all-time bestselling collection, distinguished by its ocean-ready functionality, low-profile case design, ultra-accurate Ameriquartz movement, and full USA assembly. WHO IS THIS WATCH FOR? We recommend the C3 for those seeking a dependable tool watch that can also be dressed up for more formal occasions. The "set-it-and-forget-it" nature of quartz makes it the perfect fit for an everyday wearer, and the 36mm case sizing is great option for those with smaller wrists, or who prefer a more vintage on-wrist presence reminiscent of the 1950s and 1960s. INSPIRATION: In building the C3/C5 Dirty Dozen, our goal is to return this iconic military field watch to its original use case: a rugged, accurate ocean-proof timekeeper. If quartz technology had existed in 1939 when the original models were being commissioned, it definitely would have been the choice of military commanders. If you’ve always appreciated the design and story of the Dirty Dozen, but prefer the functional superiority of quartz (and you value USA sourcing), we think that this watch delivers the perfect all-in-one solution.

G5 Pacific Steel - 39mm USA GMT

SUMMARY The G5 Pacific is a 1950s-inspired 20ATM automatic watch that stands out in the Vaer line-up as our most premium USA-assembled model and our second automatic GMT.

INSPIRATION The G5 Pacific is the GMT version of the Pacific diver (our core dive watch design). In designing that watch, our goal was to pay homage to military history while also further establishing a distinct and modern Vaer aesthetic. This watch's dial design is inspired by the 1971 Rolex Explorer II ref. 1655 and 1950s GMT Master, worn by American Pan Am pilots in the early days of commercial aviation. The dial features Vaer’s distinctive curved trapezoid indices (another hallmark of Vaer dials). The G5 GMT is further distinguished as one of the first Vaer model to use Grade A Old Radium lume paint - the feature that helps it achieve such an incredible night-time glow.
