If you’re someone that spends a lot of time outdoors, then one of the best types of wristwatches that you can get to wear while performing outdoors activities would be an all-terrain wristwatch. This type of wristwatches are designed to be quite durable so that they can whistand the stresses of a rugged lifestyle, they’re decently water resistant, usually come with some sort of illumination capabilities for nighttime usage, and tipically, they also feature a slender case size that ensures the watch stays out of your way during any sort of outdoors physical activity, whether that’s hiking, climbing, camping, chopping wood, fishing, etc. By having an all-terrain watch, you can ensure that you’re always able to keep track of time while you’re outdoors, no matter what kind of outdoors activity you’re looking to engage on. On that note, have a look at the recently release Time Concepts ProTek FIELD Series 3003 All-Terrain Wristwatch.
The Time Concepts ProTek FIELD Series 3003 is a high-end all-terrain military-grade watch featuring an ultra-durable Titanium construction that’s also rated to have a Water-Resistance Rating up to 100m, all while also boasting a self-powered ProGlo Swiss Illumination technology that provides a non-stop continuous glow for its watch hands and dial numbers for up to 25 years, plus an impressive 4-Year Battery.
Designed to have an outstanding durability thanks to more than 90 years of experience in watch manufacturing that partially come from the past-history that ProTek’s founder and owner Barry Cohen has with his former Luminox brand, the Time Concepts’s team recently came up with the ProTek Series 3000 FIELD, a line of durable all-terrain watches that are solely made of the finest available components and best materials possible so that they can be extremely durable, and ultimately, suitable for outdoors use.
It’s also worth mentioning that the word “ProTek” – which is the brand name for this brand of high-end all-terrain wristwatches – is a word-combination of two acronyms that cleverly defines both the name and mindset of the company as well as all the quality of all of the wristwatches designed by the company. Firstly, “Pro” stands for the professional watch manufacturers that are part of the company who have perfected their craft on designing the best possible high-end wristwatches for outdoors usage. Secondly, the term “Tek” is directly related to the innovative self-powered ProGlo Swiss Illumination technology that all of ProTek’s wristwatches are known to have, which essentially provides each of their awesome wristwatches with a non-stop continuous glow that can last for up to 25 years.
On top of combining professional craftsmanship and a state-of-the-art illumination technology, ProTek’s Series 3000 FIELD lineup of all-terrain wristwatches was also recently named as an Official Watch to be used by the U.S. Marine Corps, which ultimately rates it as one of the best all-terrain watches for outdoors use that you can currently find available on the market. This consequently also makes it a great choice of wristwatch for anyone working in Law Enforcement, members of SWAT Teams, Tactical personnel, members of the Military, First Responders like firefighters and paramedics, and more.
So, without any further ado, let’s have a more detailed look at the Time Concepts ProTek FIELD Series 3003 and check out all the cool features and functionalities that this newly released high-end all-terrain military-grade wristwatch has to offer you.
DESIGN & SPECS
Starting with the watch’s size, the Time Concepts ProTek FIELD Series 3003 comes a reasonably compact size for an all-terrain watch (meaning that it’s not too large / cumbersome), with it coming equipped with a 40mm Titanium Case for its main body, along with a screw-on embossed Titanium Case-back that’s neatly stamped with ProTek’s official Logo, with both of its front- and back-parts being completely made of high-quality military-grade Titanium metal.
Its full military-grade Titanium construction basically makes this all-terrain wristwatch extremely durable, scratch-resistant, and also very resistant against any sort of impact (such as accidental or unexpected bumps), especially in comparison to other outdoors wristwatches made of different materials like carbon-fiber or high-grade TPU Plastic, which are usually much more fragile.
On top of its ultra-durable Titanium construction, the ProTek FIELD Series 3003 also features a high-quality Push Crown (also made of military-grade Titanium metal) that’s integrated with a double O-Ring, which makes it easy and super-smooth for users to operate its crown when necessary.
Now, we’d like to point out that for our review unit, we got the ProTek FIELD Series 3003, which is one of five (x5) different color-models from ProTek’s recently-released Series 3000 FIELD lineup of all-terrain watches.
Regarding its design, this all-terrain wristwatch features a super-modern, minimalist, and truly stylish design. Our review unit (meaning the ProTek FIELD Series 3003) came with its main body in a bright and luxurious Light Grey color (due to its full Titanium construction), while its whole Watch Face within the interior of its Bezel came in a gorgeous Dark Tritium Blue color that ultimately creates a smooth and modern contrast with the watch’s Light Grey body.
Then, when it comes to the watch’s wrist-strap, this all-terrain military-grade wristwatch also comes equipped with a high-quality 20mm by 18mm Genuine Leather Strap that’s rated to be Water-Resistant, which, mind you, is also exceptionally comfortable to wear.
In addition, the watch’s bezel also integrates a high-grade glass cover made of Sapphire Crystal that also comes coated with a layer of Antireflective Coating that makes reading the time from this all-terrain watch fairly easy at any time of the day, no matter if you’re under direct sunlight (as its Antireflective Coating reflects away any sunlight) or even under low-light or pitch-black conditions at nighttime.
Furthermore, the watch’s military-grade Titanium Construction is also rated to be Water-Resistant up to 100 meters (328 ft.) depth.
In terms of its time-tracking capabilities, since the ProTek FIELD Series 3003 All-Terrain Wristwatch is, as said earlier, a high-end all-terrain military-grade wristwatch, its time-system is powered by a Japan Quartz Miyota Super 2035 3 Hand Movement, which boasts an impressive 4-Year Battery.
Last but not least, this all-terrain watch also boasts self-powered ProGlo Swiss Illumination technology that’s proprietary from Trigalight, which works based on tritium gas-filed borosilicate luminous glass tubes integrated directly onto the watch’s hands and in parallel to its dial numbers in order to ultimately provide a non-stop continuous glow for its watch hands and dial numbers that can last for up to 25 years.
This ultimately allows users to easily see and read time from the watch at-a -glance, even in total darkness.
PACKAGING
Finally, in terms of the watch’s packaging, we’re also very pleased to say that every wristwatch from ProTek is carefully packed in a very thorough manner, as our review unit of the ProTek FIELD Series 3003 All-Terrain Wristwatch came neatly packed inside a hard carboard box, all while also being completely surrounded by a thick layer of shock-resistant foam.
What’s more is that the watch’s body also came surrounded by an extra and slightly thinner layer of shock-resistant foam, and was also carefully packed inside a high-grade plastic covering that further protects its Sapphire Crystal glass cover from any potential damage (scratches, bumps, etc.).
