For sale I have a Carpenter Brooklyn Field model M1B watch with cream color dial. The specs for the watch are, from the site:

• HACKING MIYOTA 821A 21JEWEL AUTOMATIC MOVEMENT.
• 40MM SOLID 316L STAINLESS STEEL CASE WITH A SAPPHIRE EXHIBITION BACK.
• 5 BAR / 50M WATER RESISTANCE.
• DOUBLE DOMED SAPPHIRE CRYSTAL.
• MATTECREAM DIAL WITH BLACK MARKERS.
• POLISHED SS HANDS WITH C3 LUME.
• DATE COMPLICATION.
• GENUINE LEATHER STRAP.

From their site also a short description of what this brand is all about:

"CARPENTER WATCHES
THE BROOKLYN WATCH SHOP IS THE EXCLUSIVE RETAILER AND AFTER SALES LOCATION FOR CARPENTER WATCHES : A BROOKLYN DESIGNED, AUTOMATIC WRISTWATCH CHARACTERIZED BY WWII AVIATOR HERITAGE & DEDICATED TO UTILITARIANISM
THE BROOKLYN WATCH SHOP IS A BRICK AND MORTAR VENTURE BY JAMIE BROWN, THE FEMALE WATCHMAKER."

This is a really cool watch nicely made and great looking. The 40mm size is wearable for most wrists and the vintage style is perfectly designed. The storage case is fantastic, I have seen only a few such beautiful cases, this one is made of wood and the kit even has a wood handled strap tool. The manual and the card are both high quality, no cut corners on this watch production, everything is esquisitely executed and the overall flavor is of a much higher value timepiece. Yet it is affordable and wearable. This is also an American brand with the roots in New York. The good thing is also that there is an actual store in New York that can handle any service in the remote case that anything would happen.



This particular watch is in excellent condition with a few light superficial marks on the case, nothing that a few minutes with a polishing cloth cannot handle.

Here is a link to what Gear Patrol says about it:

Asking $299 for this shipped in the USA. Open to offers and trades but I would prefer to trade down, meaning a watch plus $$ to me.

Here are a few pics I shot, sorry for the washed out color, the cream is much richer and beautiful...
