Inspired by classic diving watches, the sweeping-seconds FRXE001 is an affordable vintage-inspired option.
Vintage looks don't have to come with vintage pricing. Naval Watch Co.'s FRXE001 is proof. Inspired by classic dive watches, it has a 40.8mm stainless steel case, a rotating black diver bezel, and a clean black dial. Beige luminous paint on the markers and hands enhances the vintage look, as does the box-style acrylic lens. A Japan-made Seiko quartz movement helps keep the price down but features a sweep seconds hand for a more premium feel. The watch is set on a 3-link stainless steel bracelet, helping add to its everyday versatility.
