Purpose-driven technical timepieces built to be used.
Thank you for the incredible response to the Arctic thus far. We sincerely value our watch community, and based on the feedback we have received, we have decided to remove “Sellita SW200” from the Arctic dial, and “Field” will replace “Explorer” in our typesetting on the Arctic dial for production.

The Arctic Field watch is a 38mm titanium, field-style watch for men and women. The choice of the natural meteorite dial represents Greenlands Hiawatha Glacier – the first meteorite impact crater ever discovered under Earth’s ice sheets. We use Grade-A Swiss Super-Luminova on our signature hour and minute hands, Arctic hunting-tool seconds hand, and dial indices for low light legibility. The case back features an original engraving of the polar bear on our signature pattern, symbolic of the harsh environment and enduring spirit of the Arctic. Powered by the precision of Sellita’s Swiss SW200, it wears comfortably on our Saffiano strap, drawing on the heritage of using leather straps in cold conditions.
A TOOL WATCH INSPIRED BY LESSER-KNOWN ADVENTURERS.
The Arctic pays homage to Peter Freuchen, the six-foot-seven Danish explorer, author, and anthropologist. In 1906, he abandoned studying medicine to explore the arctic, live, hunt, and travel with the Inuit for over two decades. He married an Inuit woman but lost her to the Spanish flu in 1921. During this time, he survived an attack by a polar bear and escaped an ice cave he had been frozen into during a blizzard by chiseling his way out using an improvised ice pick fashioned from his frozen feces. He lost a leg to frostbite and amputated his gangrenous toes himself. During the Second World War, he joined the Danish resistance against German occupation, aided refugees against the Nazis, earning him imprisonment and a death sentence from which he escaped. During his life, he wrote 30 books, received an Oscar, and was awarded the Gold Medal of the International Benjamin Franklin Society for his “service to mankind in opening new frontiers.”
