Gurkha Automatic Field Watch — Nepal’s First Automatic Field Watch
The field watch has a history as rugged as the soldiers who first wore them. Born on battlefields during World War I and II, field watches were designed for clarity, durability, and reliability under extreme pressure. Their simple but tough design made them one of the most iconic categories in wristwatch history — a timeless symbol of strength, discipline, and readiness.
Today, Gurkha Watch is proud to introduce Nepal’s first true Automatic Field Watch, a timepiece built with heritage-inspired toughness and modern Nepali craftsmanship.
