Nodus are well known for mixing the classic and contemporary into a style that is completely unique, and the way they use colour in their watches has a lot to do with that. The Sector series utilizes the same case and dial design throughout their series, creating a modern interpretation of the classic field watch.
The Sector Field has all the key elements of a mil-spec field watch. Large numerical indices for easy legibility, water-resistant construction and a 24-hour military time track.
The dial features three-dimensional Swiss Super-LumiNova X1 Grade lume, protected by a flat-top sapphire crystal with a domed underside, aiding legibility even in the most extreme angles or lighting conditions.
The case measures 38mm in diameter and 47mm lug-to-lug. The stepped case design is made from highly durable stainless-steel and features an engraved solid screw-down caseback for up to 150 metres of water resistance. The Sector Field watch uses a mixture of sandblasted and high-polished surfaces.
An oversized crown helps with winding the reliable Seiko NH35 movement, providing 41 hours of power reserve. Nodus have taken the time to regulate the movement in four positions, which makes the watch accurate to +/- 10 secs/day. The Sector Field watch also comes with a quick-release H-Link strap with the engraved Nodus logo on the clasp.
