  • Is this the BEST American Field Watch? The VAER A5 Tactical Field is an automatic watch that is just short of being able to boast "Made in USA." Parts are sourced from other countries, but assembly happens here in the USA, so VAER fairly labels them with "American Assembly." I think you'll find that when the build and quality assurance is handled in the USA, the overall result is one of the best field watches you'll find at any price point. The A5 Tactical Field combines rugged good looks with impressive specs, a high beat movement and superior legibility, plus incredible luminescence and 100m of water resistance. This is an everyday field watch that you can enjoy for years to come.

    Thank you Witt. Love this watch and the video from Vaer showing technicians installing parts was cool. Have a great week everyone.

      Thanks! There are definitely some American watchmakers that are building their own automatic movements, but it's going to take baby steps like these before we see that model in the budget category, I believe. All good things.

    this is my first watch from them and I wear it daily, love everything about it. Hoping to get their new tactical chronograph in the future and the Korean field watch.

      Sooo good, right?! Both of the other watches you mentioned look great too!

    Gotta say: these watches *GLOW* like no other! Why do people make military, pilot, or field watches, without nighttime luminosity, and think they did something useful? I don’t get it. Time happens at night too…

      Absolutely! Apparently this was the first watch they used C3 green in too. The others must be BGW9? But 25 layers of C3 definitely does the job. I love the day lume when you happen to cruise through a dark room or similar. Bright!

    Good review . I was looking at these and really like the pvd.

      You'll love it, then. I'm not particularly attracted to black cases, but this one really appealed to me. And it hasn't let me down...it's been my most worn (outside of other review pieces!) since I received it. Just a classic look and great legibility. I love this handset!

      Thanks! Yes, I hope VAER will continue to get praise from watch enthusiasts for this build, and others. Top notch.

    The black pvd case goes great with this one. Cool watch!

    • @WatchWitt

      Exactly. Usually not my first choice. But if you look at the silver colored SS case in the same watch, it just doesn't look as "put together." The PVD is magic for the aesthetics!

    Wow that has so much going for it. Funny I always thought they bordered a fashion brand.

    • @WatchWitt
      @WatchWitt  2 місяці тому

      I did too. There's nothing wrong with their marketing, especially if they're selling watches. But I think watch enthusiasts would/should be very impressed with this brand. Definitely a serious watch and NOT a fashion brand. It shows around every corner of this watch.
