Timex Waterbury

Named for the Connecticut town where Timex was born, the Waterbury ($125) finds a middle ground between classic style and modern practicality. It isn’t made for hard charging, but at this price you won’t be paranoid about taking a spill. timex.com

Tsovet SVT-DE40

We were immediately smitten with the eye-pleasing blue face on this low-key, less burly model from Tsovet ($450). The big numbers and two subdial timers are clean and easy to read, and the 40-millimeter dial is just the right size. The leather band and embossed lettering on the face add to the old-school vibe on this handsome traveler’s piece. tsovet.com

Electric Carroway Leather

An antidote to today’s data overload, the Carroway ($225) cuts all the extra dials and tachymeters—even the date window is easy to miss. Though it’s water-resistant to 100 meters and built with surgical stainless steel, the domed crystal isn’t made for serious collisions. electriccalifornia.com

Victorinox Maverick Sport Chronograph

The Maverick ($495) has a nautical feel but mixes things up with different-colored subdials on a white face. A 12-hour chronograph tracks all-day adventures, the scratch-resistant sapphire crystal stands up to shock, and the recessed crown keeps it from snagging on your shirt sleeve. swissarmy.com
