    Boderry Watches reached out to me recently to request I do an impartial review of their Field Watch. The Boderry Voyager A11T-02.
    I had seen a similar watch in the past having owned a Bertucci.
    I expected a certain quality from the watch given the price but forget the price point here!
    If I were to class this watch succinctly it would definitely be a contender for
    "THE BEST AUTOMATIC FIELD WATCH UNDER $100".
    A bold claim, but a claim I am happy to field...sorry...no pun intended!
    The Boderry Voyager is a cool looking piece. it's rugged and has an accurate Seiko NH35 powering it. The A11T-02 in White (which is more Polar Silver) is a stunner to look at but at night the lume is only OK....BUT you can buy the black dial version which has superior lume given that the indexes, the hands and the arabics are all lumed. Job done!
    Check out the review and see if the Boderry Voyager Field Watch A11T-02 can fulfill a need for you. Is it the new Best Budget Field Watch?

    You are a dangerous man John, I have watched several reviews of this watch and thought meh! Then I watch your review and I'm seriously tempted 🤣 . That lighter dial looks better than other versions to me, it's the one I would go for despite the lume.

    Sweet little watch. It's done right in almost every aspect, for instance the colours of dial, hands and indeces really work well together. It appears to be put together neatly. I even like the strap, although I'm generally not a huge fan of natos. The lume is OK. There is not a lot to expect from those tiny lumed dots around the dial but the hands do reasonably well. A compass rose would be better suited for the caseback but that's basically a non-issue. All in all this review has surprised me.

I clicked on your Bodberry link and was UNABLE to find the sale price for either the titanium or bronze. Both watches were $20 more than your advertised price. The additional straps were pried as you stated.

    A very solid offer, the bronze are very tempting, yet I think it would benefit a lot from smaller proportions, like 38 by 46.
