Smokey Bear + VERO

Originally released for Smokey Bear's 79th birthday in 2023, this popular series is a durable field watch, tough enough for the iconic bear himself.

CELEBRATING THE ICON

The Smokey Bear official watch by VERO has a custom designed Smokey Bear image, seen here on the dial of the Smokey '44 watch. Smokey's iconic shovel is also incorporated as the counterweight of the seconds hand.

Trusty Components

The Smokey Bear watches have a perfectly paired satin and high polish finished stainless steel case and crown that screw down to lock out water and debris.
We packed Super LumiNova on to each dial dot, numeral, and hand of the Smokey Bear watches for up to 15 hours with a sufficient UV charge.

Timeless design

"1944 was Smokey’s first official year, so that variant has a more classic look: decorative numerals, cathedral hands, and a basic case back engraving. 1964 was when Smokey got his own ZIP code, so that variant is a touch more modern, and in-line with a field watch of the day." -Designer Matt Smith-Johnson

So nice. So clean. Pictures dont even do it justice. My new favorite field watch! Quality product 👍

Watch that doesn’t keep time.

So I’ve had my watch about a month now love the looks of it and idea of it, but if I’m wearing a watch I expect to not have to reset it every single day. Especially with a price tag like this. Every three days it’s 5 minutes fast. Quality control is obviously crap if the watch’s don’t properly keep time. I don’t know how to make a watch but if I did you can bet I would make sure it works properly before shipping it to a customer.

Hi McEwen,
Thanks for your review, and for bringing this to our attention. The Smokey Bear watches have a mechanical automatic movement. It can be wound to give it a bit of a jump start after sitting idle, as they do while being shipped out.
Can you try these steps below? If after giving your watch a good wind, it still is gaining time, then we'll be glad to bring it in to have a look and get it regulated to that +/- 5 seconds again. You can reach out to support@vero-watch.com and we'll send you a return ship slip to get the work done. Thank You!

-Unscrew the crown counter clockwise until it’s in the “open” position.
-Wind 20-30 times.
-Give the watch a few gentle shakes to engage the rotor. The second hand should now be ticking.
-Monitor the time for 24-48 hours.

Awesome

Now this is my favorite watch 😁🤩
And the 2 strap is a very nice extra!
