The scenarios that can be related to this are: I have divers from my favorite brands and would like to add a field watch. I think the brand has one in its catalog. Luckily, that’s true! You buy it, receive it, and love it. Two months later, I decided I wanted GMT, so I’ll jump on my favorite brand’s website again and some are available. So I buy and love it as much as Field Watches and Divers. Next, I’ll talk to my fellow watch enthusiasts about GADA/daily watches. It sounds great to own, but yes your Do you want to create a brand too? Of course, that’s true. Shopping on that one website covers most watch needs. That sounds too good, doesn’t it? No, it’s not. It’s not a trusca.
I talked a lot Truska In the past, and I’m going to do it again today. The brand has once again updated all collections, so the five models are better than ever. I’ve reviewed a few Traska Watches previously, including commuters, venture GMTs, and seafarers, so I don’t get to the heart of each model’s specifications. Instead, you’ll give a blanket presentation about what Traska Watch is and what they are. Then we talk about each collection in a more philosophical and emotional way. After all, specs are important to many of us, but so are designs. But perhaps the most important factor is its connection to the watch. If you don’t like Traska’s design language, don’t connect to them. But if that’s the case, I’ll stick with it.
The comprehensive philosophy of trusca watches
Whether you’re not used to Traska or not, understanding the brand’s philosophy will probably help. For each collection, Traska aims to provide great value in specifications and finishes, regardless of the watch genre. Since its founding in 2018, one of its models has never exceeded the US$1,000 price range. And that doesn’t mean that Traska’s collection doesn’t get better every year. They do. Traska offers better value each year by tweaking the proportions, quality and design of the model. Today, in 2025, there is the sixth generation of Freediver, the longest, not the first iteration of any Traska collection. The latter fact shows how the brand is investing and what enthusiasts think. Traska minimizes upgrades for each model each year and offers a collection of multiple sizes.
It is also one of the few companies that have a “first” in the micro/independent brand world. For example, to my knowledge, it was the first to offer a hardened stainless steel case and bracelet. I think it was also the first micro brand to make a 34mm watch. Traska was one of the first brands to use the Miyota 9075 GMT caliber besides Jack Mason. It is also a pioneer in color experiments, best known for its mint collection, and the first micro brand to dare to revisit the iconic three-row stainless steel bracelet. Beyond that, each Traska collection could become a potential gada (go anywhere, do anything), thanks to their classic yet sporty design and excellent specifications. Again, you have to like the way they seem to agree with me.
General specifications for all Traska collections
Okay, what are these great specs I keep talking to you? First, all five collections watches have bracelets with surfaces rated at 1,200 hV on the Vickers Hardness scale. It is practical and beautiful for everyday use. Second, all models house the Premium Miyota movement with a 4Hz frequency and a 41 hour power reserve, from date 9039 and date 9015 to date 9075 flyer style GMT Calibur. Traska doesn’t regulate its caliber, but experience shows that they run very well out of the box. Additionally, all Traska models generally have box-cut type sapphire crystals, with several layers of reflective coating. The dial is matte with thickly printed time markers or glossy with applied polished markers. It also features diamond cut hands and generous applications from Lume, usually a Super Luminova BGW9.
Incidentally, all models have a water resistance rating of 100-200 meters.
Traska Summiteer: Field Watch
Next, let’s start with the Samiter and enter the philosophical and emotional exploration of Truska’s collection. I decided to start now as it was the first trusca I had experienced three years ago. As of 2025, Summiteer is available in two sizes (36mm and 38mm) and four colors. It’s a de facto field/exploration watch, and for me it’s philosophically related to the Rolex Explorer ref. 1016. In particular, the 36mm model makes Ian Fleming think about his famous photo at his desk at the Golden Eye Estate in Jamaica.
Fleming, a writer and retired intelligence agent, may have chosen the Traska Summiteer 36 if it existed in the early 1960s. It is the type of watch that you can take on all your adventures. It’s the micro/indie equivalent of a clock that makes the house look right on James Bond’s wrist (yes, I like hot take!).
Summiteer 36 sells retailers for USD 640 and Summiteer 38 for USD 650.
Traska Freediver and Seafarer: Dive Watch
Although the purpose is similar, not form, Freediver and Seafarer are two versions of the tool watch for underwater exploration. Freediver was the first model of Traska, launched on Kickstarter in 2018. This is the epitome of a classic and capable dive watch that works similarly during diving and dining at the Met Gala. In other words, it is an independent, affordable version of the Rolex Submariner, and I mean it as a composure. At the other end of the spectrum, the sailor is a powerful compressor-style diver with two crowns.
Both the Freediver and Seafarer are extremely flexible diving watches, but the latter can only be used in dateless configurations. Both come with Traska’s comfortable and designed bracelets, which are actually very versatile. Of the two, I prefer the black Friedabah on dates. Classic!
Freediver sells for 685 US dollars and sailors sells for 665 US dollars.
Traska Commuter: The Gada/Everyday Watch
I’m a huge fan of Summiteer, Freediver, and Seafarer, but I’m a huge commuter fan. As the name suggests, this collection was created as the perfect everyday watch for anyone on the go. Therefore, Traska has decided to offer in three sizes: 34mm, 36mm and 38mm, and anyone can find the perfect match. All sizes have roughly the same colorway, with a few exceptions. As is often the case with Traska, the brand came up with clearer dial colors, including faded copper (Commuter 34), Cypress Green (Commuter 36), and Oxblood Red (Commuter 38). However, each version/size is blessed with the most restrained design, which keeps commuters classic and versatile.
I own a commuter 34, and it’s a joy to wear it every day while doing something. Despite their elegant appeal, these watches are built as tools for modern explorers of cities and green jungles.
Commuter 34 is a retailer for USD 600, Commuter 36 is a $640, and Commuter 38 is a $650.
Venture GMT: Travelers
Venturer GMT is the latest entry in Traska’s catalog. The first version was a type of diver/multipurpose tool watch with an internal 12-hour rotating bezel. However, when the Miyota 9075 caliber came into being, the brand quickly transformed the venture into a robust and capable GMT. It can be argued that it is the most versatile of all Traska models for dates, complications of GMT, and a depth rating of 150m.
Emotionally, it is the coolest model in the brand, and philosophically it is the model that best shows what it can do. We offer Traska’s high manufacturing quality and finish it with daily looks and GADA specifications. As for the price, it is also a fair amount and one of the most affordable flyer style GMTs. It has a unique combination of James Bond-like abilities and red carpet-like elegance, which is superb.
The Venturer GMT is available at 735 US dollars and is available in the new MetEorite-Dial version for 965 US dollars.
Conclusion
look? I didn’t lie when I said no Truska Watches are retailers for over USD 1,000. In fact, they sell much less, with the most expensive cereal production model at $735 (the Venturer GMT Meteorite is the only limited edition with 100 units). This means you can create an entire collection just by shopping on one website. And you can do so by spending about half the price of Tudor Pelagos. Of course, Traska’s design language needs to resonate with you to enjoy such a one-stop watch brand. If so, I’d probably find a better option, except for the Lorier and the Baltic Sea.
The only practical warning is that Traska watches tend to sell out quickly, but the brands regularly restock them. Additionally, you can choose from five collections and multiple versions of each model, making sure you find the available models you want. i promise!
