The Venture Wayfarer offers a twist on the classic field watch layout with the addition of a 24-hour subdial at 9 o’clock. At 38mm wide and 12mm thick, the watch sits very comfortably on the wrist, and as it’s titanium it’s exceptionally light.
With an anti-reflective coated sapphire crystal, and 200m water resistance, the Venture Wayfarer is tough enough to take almost anywhere.
Boldr have used a Miyota 8217 movement in the Venture Wayfarer. This reliable Japanese automatic calibre has 21 jewels, a decent 42 hour power reserve, and beats at 21,600 bph. The movement is accurate to -20/+40 seconds per day.
