Although we are firm believers that a watch's specifications or features can only get you so far, and that a purchase can be heavily weighted by an emotional connection, finding a watch that overdelivers on the spec sheet can make for a more compelling package.
Many of the watches that can deliver on value are usually very much out in the general discourse. But every once in a while, there is a watch that is not likely appreciated as much as it should be by the collector community, in most cases as a result of it being from a smaller brand. And today, we look at a watch that qualifies for that assessment, being from a German family-owned company, known as the Circula Protrail. This piece serves as a complete package for everyday wear on paper, with solid wearability, water resistance, a high-grade caliber, magnetic resistance, and scratch resistance, all while sitting at around $1,000.
