August 2023 is upon us at last, and with the dog days of summer in full swing before the approach of fall, it’s a great moment to find a watch that can serve for all seasons. There’s arguably no more versatile all-season choice than a classic field watch, and aBlogtoWatch has teamed up with Cincinnati Watch Co. to offer one lucky winner a warm, retro take on the classic field watch look. One entrant will receive this handsome, capapble Cincinnati Cincinnatus Centurion Black watch, which combines classic field watch lines with a unique Art Deco flair.
Measuring in at 40mm-wide, the Cincinnati Cincinnatus Centurion Black’s 316L stainless steel case is clean and well-proportioned, with more contouring than most of its direct competitors. The case’s classic tapering lugs and sloping smooth bezel are augmented by broad, sinuously flowing case side chamfers, while the bright polishing brings a striking contrast to the predominantly brushed design. A screwdown crown and a solid 100 meter water resistance rating help to ensure that this is a true go-anywhere, do-anything timepiece.
For the dial of the Cincinnatus Centurion Black, Cincinnati Watch Co. elaborates on the classic utilitarian field watch formula with rich, Art Deco-esque gilt elements. The deeply textured matte black dial surface forms a clean, legible canvas for the outer railroad minute scale, finished in richly saturated gilt tones. A set of syringe-tipped Roman sword hands continues this classic golden color scheme, together with a reserved touch of red for the tip of the central seconds hand. It’s the applied Arabic numerals that truly steal the show, however. These slightly stylized sans-serif designs add a subtle dose of distinction and refinement to the deisgn, without sacrificing the excellent legibility that makes field watches so versatile.
Inside the Cincinnati Cincinnatus Centurion Black beats the reliable Sellita SW200-1 b automatic movement. Presented here in high-end Elabore grade specification, this familiar powerplant has been a watch industry staple for years, offering dependable performance including a 41 hour power reserve and adjustment in five positions for accuracy. Cincinnati Watch Co. finishes off the watch with an adventurous nylon NATO strap in black and tan. The Cincinnati Cincinnatus Centurion Black carries an MSRP of $549 USD.
