BOLDR Expedition V1 Is Back!

Today I’ve got what I think is some pretty exciting news to share with you all. BOLDR has announced that they’re doing a limited re-release of this, the original version of the Expedition; their well-equipped 41mm field watch.

This 2022 edition differs somewhat from the 2018 model, with an ever-so-slightly tweaked dial and case back design, but stays true to the original with the same sleek bead-blasted stainless steel case and handset. The colour ways are also a little different to the initial offering, in particular the sandy khaki tones of the Rubʿ al-Khali model, which is all new.

According to the brand, the Expedition is “a tough, adventure-ready watch with impressive features to go along with its attractive design”, which "has remained the company’s most highly requested watch to return by fans”.

I may have been one of those asking for this to come back, honestly the second iteration of the Expedition - that BOLDR has been selling now for a number of years - just doesn’t do it for me, but the design of this one I just love. It’s unfortunate they’re not offering a blue Everest option this time around as that’s the one I’ve been chasing for some time, I did manage to find a white full-lume dial model a few months back though that I really do enjoy wearing. It’s actually incredibly similar to the White Sands variant being offered here, so let me know if you’d like to see a quick impressions video of that one.

Just the original, this watch features 200m of water resistance, a double-domed sapphire crystal and a Sellita SW200 automatic movement. The re-release Expedition goes on sale March 10 for $599 USD. Each variant is limited to just 300 pieces, so if you’re interested in this one make sure you get in quick.
