The Vanguard takes inspiration from the original wristwatch - the field watch, but there’s a twist. While the field watch was born from necessity to survive wartime conditions, the Vanguard intends to bring this tool watch design to the modern era, surviving the daily perils of working, washing dishes, putting up shelves or playing with pets or children. To survive these most perilous conditions it must be built to last - engineered with a shock resistant automatic NH38/39 movement, a grade 2 titanium case and sapphire crystal, this watch will survive conditions harsher than war.
