Vaer S5 Dirty Dozen 40mm Quartz vs Timex Indigo Expansion Band Watch

Buy the Vaer S5 if you want a rugged field watch you can swim and shower in, with sapphire crystal and a screwdown crown at 100m. The Timex Indigo is a dressier, lighter-duty stainless steel watch with an expansion band that slips on without a clasp. The Vaer is the tougher, more legible tool watch; the Timex is the easier grab-and-go for office and casual wear.

• Choose the Vaer S5 if you want a sapphire crystal, screwdown crown, 100m water resistance and quick-change straps for outdoor use.
• Choose the Timex Indigo if you want a stainless steel watch with an expansion band that slips on and off without a clasp.
