Though it’s a relatively young company—established in 2015 in Portland, Oregon—Vero watches are already making a big splash on the collector’s scene. There’s a good reason for that too: Their innovative watch designs draw on so many elements of outdoor sport culture that there’s a watch for anyone who loves feeling the sun and breeze against their skin.
The Workhorse Backcountry Chronograph lives up to its name, with a rugged triple gasket, screw down crown and rubberized horns to protect it from the elements. But even if it takes a tumble it can’t recover from, Vero’s 10 year no-questions-asked warranty will have you covered. A beefy 44.5 mm case gives it plenty of presence on your wrist too, making it just as attractive in urban settings as it is useful out in the bush.
