Straton Yacht Racer Quartz Watch

Here at The Coolector, we typically like two things above all else when it comes to timepieces – namely, we want them to have a bit of visual vibrancy and, secondly, that they offer good value for money. Well, we’ve just come across a watch that scores well in both these departments in the shape of the superb looking Yacht Racer Quartz Watch from the, always excellent, Straton Watch Company. If you want a high-quality, adventure ready watch on your wrist in 2022, this one is a no-brainer in our opinion.

The Straton Yacht Racer Quartz Watch is available for pre-ordering now and for a bargain price of just $259 (down from the intended final retail price of $319) so make sure you move quickly if you want to bag yourself a bargain this February. Available in six different colour combinations, you’re definitely going to find a Yacht Racer that fits in with your own sense of style and current EDC line up and this is the sort of watch you’ll want to wear everyday and will be the first one you reach for in the morning when you head out the door.

Straton Watch Co stemmed from a love for classic cars, racing and watches. The designer/creator of Straton Watch Co.® combined his passion for automotive history, racing and his passion for horology and set out to create a watch brand which reflects these interests hence Straton´s slogan “Style created through passion”. To date Straton Watch Co. has successfully launched and delivered thousands of watches to customers around the world with new collections launching every year. This latest release, the Yacht Racer Quartz Watch, might just be one of their most accomplished to date and it’s certainly our favourite so far here at The Coolector.

The Straton Yacht Racer Quart Watch (pre-order price of $259) is an immeasurably stylish timepiece that, as the name suggests, takes its inspiration from life spent on the water. The aim of the Yacht Racer Quartz was for this timepiece to be an all round every day watch that doesn’t break the bank and, from what we can see, it’s mission well and truly accomplished. It boasts a 10ATM water resistance courtesy of its screw down crown and the sapphire crystal glass ensures it’s a durable all round watch you can wear on the regular without worrying about it.

The dial of the Yacht Racer from Straton Watch Co features a Chronograph 60 minute timer, a small 60 seconds dial and a sweeping 4 beats per second chronograph seconds hand that can be activated when required. Extremely vibrant aesthetically, this is definitely a watch that will turn heads everywhere you go. The Yacht Racer’s “engine” so to speak is the reliable and functional Miyota 6S21 Quartz movement which is a precise, robust offering which will not let you down when push comes to shove. Available for just $259 right now, this watch is an essential purchase for those after a cool new timepiece for their wrist in time for spring.
