Vero Smokey Bear Edition Watch “Only You Can Prevent Wildfires”

The hour hand on the Smokey watch looks more like a lit match when it in the dark. Very cool.

Who doesn't love Smokey the Bear! Very cool watches!

I saw the original Smokey at the National Zoo back in the 50’s, neat looking watch, Thanks for sharing Rob🐻

Damn how old are you?

@@chriswalls6667 you have quite a sharp memory remembering a watch like that🫡. I have a citizen watch that's almost as old as you and I have to say I admire the watches made back then. It was my grandfather's watch. There's something about the design language of watches made in the 50s and 60s that's very appealing and it still runs like a champ. I feel like your generation got to enjoy the best watches. Anyways have a great day sir

Wow cool watches, never knew these existed. I prefer the 44 as well, as someone else pointed out the hour hand resembles a matchstick.

Would love to see them with a black wristband

I’m digging this one ☝️

That other ring you think is another bezel might be a crystal gasket. Usually older watches with acrylic crystals had these steel gaskets.

Definitely an interesting and nostalgic piece.👍🏻

Love it!

[@marcusstoner1641]

This is a really nice watch, it's the attention to detail and the character of the watch that shines. The loom is awesome too.

I really like the watches but I don't know anything about a bear named Smokey.

Go bear 🐻 or go home

$450 for a Seiko NH38, though? Ughhh.

As a counter-point this watch is less about the movement/specs and more about the aesthetic/nostalgia. 120M water resistance, the bead-blasted case, and a reliable movement with an OK power reserve will make 99% of buyers happy for a piece like this. Just my opinion, you're not wrong of course :)
