  • @TechnoLawyer
    @TechnoLawyer 5 лет назад +6

    Same issue I always have with watches for actual use outdoors where we are only looking at them as a tool - a $40 gshock is more capable in every single way, unless having an analog disay counts for something.
    Of course, if you allow style to creep into it, or if you're just buying a field watch because you like the look, have at it. I have a hamilton khaki field mechanical that I wear casually and enjoy, but if I was going camping, it would sit in a drawer while my gshock would be on the wrist. I wouldn't want to ding up a $400 watch. A $40 watch that probably won't ding anyway because it's plastic? Who cares, even if it does ding up. Gshocks are so ugly anyway, not like being a little beat up can make them any worse :D

    I am very happy with my Boldr Venture. Great watch, with some great details, like the lug design, signed crown, caseback . Very light and comfortable. Sometimes i prefer a heavier watch, but other times this one makes more sense. The same thing for the quartz movement. Love my mechanics, but is good to have a grab and go watch, and it makes lot of sense a quartz movement in a field watch, with a sapphire glass, 100m, light, with lume. And is silent, too. The only annoying thing is the miss aligned seconds hand...

  • @raserx63
    @raserx63 5 лет назад +1

    I was shopping for a quartz field watch as a kind of tough daily driver. I had it narrowed down to the Boldr Venture and the Vaer Field watch. I ended up choosing the Vaer and I’m glad I did. It’s 40mm , screw down crown, sapphire crystal & comes with 2 straps of your choosing. Movement is Swiss Rhonda quartz. They also assemble them there in Long Beach ,CA. The case and screw in crown sold me on it , and it didn’t disappoint. The quality is apparent and it feels tank-like. I’m going to keep an eye on that company as they are releasing an automatic this year as well..

    same crown position and 100m waterproof,quartz movements and raw material is Titanium only different is case. a-2t is 40mm and venture is 38mm

  • @ajones4064
    @ajones4064 5 лет назад +1

    Great review!!! I love my Venture!! Just because it has a quartz movement does not bother me, as I am a true watch addict. It's hard to find a watch with the same specs for the price point I bought mine for (got it on kickstarter early bird for an awesome deal). I have to say that it is always odd to handle such a light watch, along with my Marathon Military Navigator resin watch. They may feel light, but they are both great watches and I would love to see a shoot-out between them.

    Nothing wrong with a quartz watch, I've got a Citizen eco-drive similar in size and specs to this (no sapphire tho) as a daily beater. It's great and super accurate, I use it to check my automatics and once it's charged it's supposed to run for 6 months without any light at all. And for the price you definitely wouldn't feel bad if you destroyed it somehow.

    I like your Black Jaguar, White Tiger sweatshirt. A good organization I think. I also agree with your issue with the NATO. I run into a lot of NATO straps that just aren't long enough for my 8 inch wrist. I wish the Venture was 40mm, otherwise, seems great for a great price.
