A CLASSIC REDEFINED
THE MUNRO
The essence of a true field watch -
Perfectly balanced. Everything you need. Nothing you don’t.
£499 on strap, £575 on bracelet.
The journey began in 2021 with rigorous design, prototyping phases and testing in the Scottish Highlands. The result? Our 37.5mm vision of the perfect field watch. A contoured 9.25mm case blends seamlessly with the wrist, providing uninhibited movement, whether you’re reaching for your next rock hold or another sip of that post hike pint. A box sapphire crystal adds 0.75mm of elevation, taking the Munro to a svelte 10mm total height. Domed crystal and dial edges offer the nostalgic depth from our favourite timepieces of yesteryear. When the light fades, the deep filled hands and markers will shine bright with Grade A BGW9, a crisp white in the daylight and cool blue in the dark. Inside, a high beat automatic movement, Miyota’s premium 9039, hermetically sealed to a water resistance of 150m. The chunky screw-down crown offers a reassuring presence and ease of adjustment, even with gloved hands or freezing finger tips. It’s been said by many that the perfect field or steel sports watch should have a bracelet with a good taper. We agree, that’s why the Munro comes with a 20mm to 16mm tapering bracelet with a sleek toolless micro-adjustable clasp. Bevelled, fully articulated links make for a butter smooth, snag-free fit – we think you’re going to love it! The Munro logo at 6 o’clock is our subtle nod to ‘Dirty Dozen’ watches, commissioned by the British Ministry of Defence in World War II – arguably the genesis of the field watch genre that we recognise today, and the earliest source of inspiration for the Munro. The Munro is assembled by hand, in Britain. Rigorously tested and carefully inspected, we ensure each piece is given the attention it deserves. The Munro - any place, anytime, anywhere, you'll be ready.

WHAT'S IN A NAME
MUNRO:
Scotland's highest mountains, where rugged terrain and treacherous ridges give way to secluded tranquility.
WHAT DO THE EXPERTS SAY?
BEHIND THE DIAL
RIDGELINE
LIFE SAVING FUNCTIONALITY
Ridgeline adds a joyful colour pallet to the traditionally reserved field watch genre, in addition to infusing new story and functionality. This distinct dial echoes mountain slopes, criss crossing the length of a Scottish glen – one of our favourite sights when travelling north of Edinburgh, into the rugged terrain of the Highlands. The inclines of each shape represent the critical gradients at which avalanches are most likely to occur, adding a unique function to the design. A visual cue that could prove life saving to mountaineers and cross country skiers alike. Finally, the dial features a refined vertical brushed effect, drawing inspiration from mountains shrouded in hazy precipitation. Whether in the Highlands or chartering your next adventure - the playful colours pair perfectly with vibrant summer days and will uplift you in the midst of winter.
SPINDRIFT
FULL LUME
Imagine yourself on a rugged mountaineering expedition, facing the relentless fury of wind-whipped spindrift snow. Sculpting treacherous cornices, and spiraling into the sky, spindrift alters montane atmosphere in the blink of an eye. Evocative by name and beautiful by nature, the Munro Spindrift is crafted for the daring - redefining legibility in extreme conditions. The full lume dial ensures crystal-clear visibility, even on the darkest of nights. Bold black hands and applied markers contrast against the crisp dial to provide superlative clarity. When night falls, the Grade A BGW9 lume casts a mesmerising cool blue glow across the dial. Spindrift encapsulates the spirit of Highland adventure and British craftsmanship alike.
HIGHLAND AMBER
THINK SINGLE MALT & SUN DRENCHED MOORELAND
This inviting and playful shade draws inspiration from golden malt whisky, ochre burns, sun-bathed moorland, and the hues of evening skies. Fresh green accents not only separate the black minute track but also punctuate the engraved crosshair for intuitive legibility. This lively colourway will look great on your next adventure, be it in the Highlands or urban jungle.
PITCH BLACK
CLASSICS ARE CLASSIC FOR GOOD REASON
A deep black dial with a discreet vertical brushing. The effect evokes Highland views of hazy rain on distant mountain tops. It's a subtle effect, only visible in certain light, that adds depth and a premium touch to the dial. Red triangles accent the dial, providing additional character to this otherwise monochromatic take on the classic field watch.
