It might take Pilot G2 refills, but make no mistake: Machine Era's Bolt Field Pen is a heritage-quality instrument. It's fully machined from solid stock, using a Swiss-type turning technique to create a two-part body that's extremely accurate, secured tightly, and polished by hand. The bolt-style opening action is quick, fluid, and fiddle-worthy, and the pen is available in stainless steel or brass, finished off with a fully machined clip in either aluminum or titanium.
Timex built its Q Continental Chronograph as a 40mm watch, then shrank it to 36mm to follow the industry's shift toward smaller cases. That resizing came with real tradeoffs, not just a smaller dial: the rotating bezel became fixed, and water resistance dropped from 328 feet down to 164 feet, enough for light swimming but not diving. From lug to lug, it's close to the proportions of an actual 1970s chronograph. It comes in an ice blue dial with black subdials or a black dial with silver subdials and a red stopwatch hand, both on a brushed and polished stainless steel bracelet.
