Best Watches For Firefighters

Timex is well-known in the market for producing durable and affordable watches, so there’s no surprise that this Expedition model brings so much value for the price. It’s also a field watch, which may make it look a bit bulky, but it does a fantastic job in any environment. 

The stainless steel case is brushed and has an aged aspect that fits extremely nicely with the brown leather strap. Also, the bezel gives the watch a rugged aspect and it’s marked with the cardinal points and the degrees of a circle. 

The deal has a beige creamy color and features both 12h & 24h formats, with an outer ring of markings for seconds. The watch uses Arabic numerals for both formats and there is a date window in the 3 o’clock position. Overall, the face of the watch is very pleasant and easy to read. 

Equipped with a three-hands Quartz movement, the watch is fitted with Indiglo night-light with night mode, which is extremely helpful when there is no other light source around. The minute and hour hands are also lumed, which improves visibility in low light conditions. 

To activate the Indiglo, you have the press on the crown. The light won’t stay on for long, but it’s enough to let you see the time and date. Speaking of which, to set the time and date, you will also use the crown. This is a push/pull crown with two stages – you pull to the maximum upward position and you set the time and then, if you push, you’ll get to the position where you can set the date. 

While this Timex is a hefty timepiece, it can be easily integrated into any environment as long as you don’t mind the wide strap (22mm) and big case. The strap is very soft and there’s even some padding so you can wear the watch for as long as you want. However, the light color is not stain-resistant and may get soiled very easily.

A timepiece that commands respect and attention. The Fireman Storm Chaser Pro from Ball Watches is a valuable accessory in any man’s wardrobe!

The design is visually attractive, with a big stainless steel case adorned with a fixed black bezel with markings and a beautiful scratch-resistant sapphire crystal lens. The exhibition back case lets you see the automatic three-hands movement hard at work and increases the appeal of the watch. The design is nicely complemented by a black leather strap with a pin buckle. 

Powered by a BALL RR1402 Calibre with a power reserve of 48h, this wristwatch is also a chronograph (functionality that can be controlled using the side buttons that frame the crown). 

The face is large and features three subdials and one calendar window (3 o’clock) for the day of the week and date. The three subdials service the chronograph function and measure seconds (9 o’clock), minutes (12 o’clock), and hours (6 o’clock). 

The dial is black, which makes the face easy to read and follow, even though there are several complications on it. In addition to this, the movement has nicely lumed hands and hour markers, which is a specific feature for Ball watches. The Lume is colored differently for each type of marker, so there is blue for second and subdial hands, green for hour markers, and orange for the 12, 3, 6, and 9.

Created to honor the people who have dedicated their lives to saving others, the “for My Firefighter” timepiece from Bradford Exchange can be a nice gift for a firefighter you admire. 

It is beautifully designed in tones of gold and silver and the fire red analog dial pops up in a refreshing visual experience. The stainless steel case and bracelet are solidly built and comfortable to wear. Also, the face (protected by a glass lens) features a firefighter insignia (the Maltese cross) and the back case is engraved with a verse from the “For My Firefighter” poem.  

The watch is powered by a reliable and accurate quartz movement. It has three subdials and one date window (4 o’clock) and the outer rim of the dial has tachymeter markings. All the functions are easy to control using the crown and the two buttons the frame in on the right side of the bezel. 

Overall, this is a beautiful watch with a fine jewelry design that honors firefighters and shows appreciation for their efforts.

The G-Shock is a well-established brand for outdoor adventurers and professionals who work outside an office. 

This model features a durable build with a plastic case and resin strap with a camouflage pattern. While the materials don’t sound very luxurious, this is a watch that can withstand a 300 feet fall and resists to up to 200m underwater. Also, it is powered by a quartz movement fueled by a battery that can keep going for up to ten years.

The face is a classic G-shock look (a bit bulky but easy to read) and features three subdials at the top and one electronic screen in the bottom half of the screen. The watch also has an LED backlight that makes it easy to check the time or other settings in low-light conditions or at night. 

As most G-Shock designs, this model comes with a series of practical features such as world time (31 time zones), Multi Time (time in 4 different cities), flash alert, 5 alarms, full auto-calendar set to 2099, countdown timer, stopwatch, and both 12/24h formats. 

Overall, it’s a very practical timepiece with plenty of uses for orientation, timekeeping, and measurements. It is a bit bulky and big, but it’s also comfortable and extremely useful.

Marathon is the official supplier of wristwatches to the United States and Canadian military since 1941. As such, the Diver’s Quartz Medium respects military specifications of durability and features. 

The analog dial is protected by a 3mm thick scratch-resistant sapphire crystal while the face is illuminated with Tritium gas tubes that are guaranteed to work for up to 25 years, 24/7. In addition, the entire mechanism is water-resistant for up to 1000ft.

The heart of this watch is a Swiss-made ETA F06 high-torque 3 jewels Quartz movement with EOL (End-of-Life) indicator. This guarantees its accuracy and reliability in time and under stressful conditions. 

The analog dial features both 12h and 24h formats and there is a date window between the 4 and 5 o’clock positions. The crown is textured and easy to grip without being too big for the size of the case. Also, since this is a 36mm case, the watch fits people with smaller wrists.

Are you proud of your job? Or maybe you’re looking for that unique gift for the firefighter(s) in your life. In this case, a watch like the Aquaforce Firefighter is a fantastic option. 

While affordable, the watch is designed to be elegant and laudatory towards firemen. It starts with a beautiful case protected by stainless steel in the back and brass around the bezel. The colors are exquisite and combine nicely, creating an accessory that can be worn with the uniform, a suit, formal or casual attire. In addition, the silicone band is water and stain resistant and fits comfortably on almost any wrist size. 

The analog dial has a black background and features a three-hand movement with lumed hands. At the center of the dial, there is a large etched rose-gold Maltese that fits the hour markers and the rose gold bezel with black trim. On the outer rim of the dial, there are marked seconds and the bezel also comes with 10s  markings. 

Overall, the Aquaforce Firefighter is a wonderful way of showing your appreciation for the job and the people practicing it. It’s also easy to read and fits a wide range of scenarios so one can wear it at all times.

Part of the Timex Expedition series, the Camper watch was designed for durability and ease of use. 

The 18mm black nylon strap is resistant and impervious to water and other substances. It’s also breathable, easy to slap on your wrist due to the hook & loop closure, and can fit up to an 8-inch wrist circumference. Next, the resin case is solid and the lens is acrylic.

The dial is white with black markers and features a three-hand quartz movement. The watch supports 12h & 24h formats (as two concentric rings of Arabic numerals) and has markings for seconds on the outer rim of the dial. Also, there is a date window at the 3 o’clock position.

Since this is a Timex, it is fitted with luminous hands and Indiglo backlight technology. It’s also water-resistant for up to 100m, which means you can take it swimming.
