Field Ops Watch (New Design)

Once again, innovation is the “watch” word for 5.11 Tactical Series.  When we set out to design a watch we wanted one that would truly serve the needs of law enforcement.  The Field Ops Watch has all of the features needed for day to day activities and includes our revolutionary SureShot™ calculator.  In a partnership with Horus Vision, makers of proven long-range ballistic software, we bring sophisticated point of impact software to your wrist.  We give you the ability to input thirteen critical variables needed for long range shooting solutions quickly and easily.  Our shooting solutions are provided in Mils, True Minute of Angle (TMOA) and Shooter’s Minute of Angle (SMOA).  And that’s not all, this rugged watch can take a real beating.  We’ve beefed up the Field Ops Watch pins to stand the strain of a wrestling match, sealed the watch for 30 meters of water resistance and given you a controlled backlight so you can see your data when you need it.  This great looking timepiece is perfect for any activity. The Field Ops Watch has all the features you’ll need for work and play.  We’ve included digital day, date, and two digital time zones.  Along with an audible alarm, there is an hourly chime, a countdown timer and you can check your lap times with a digital chronograph.  We’ve included a uni-directional bezel along with a backlight.  The Field Ops Watch also has a fully functional digital compass which can be adjusted for true north readings.  And last but not least, we’ve given you a full function ballistic calculator.  The SureShot™ calculator accepts thirteen critical shooting variables to give you point of impact shooting solutions out to 1000 meters.  Input your known ballistic data (bore height, ballistic coefficient, muzzle velocity and zero range), then add your environmental data (range, temperature, altitude, inclination) and the SureShot™ calculator will give you a shooting solution in MILS, TMOA or SMOA. You can even get your solution in clicks for both windage and elevation.   The calculator is very easy to use and most of the variables can be put into the Field Ops Watch before going out to the field.  This full function time piece is unique in the world of watches. The Field Ops Watch has a high-density polycarbonate frame which is light weight and tough.  The mineral crystal face is scratch resistant and reduces glare.  We’ve beefed up the watch pins to secure the watch to your wrist in even the most arduous activities. The Field Ops Watch has a lightweight titanium case, comes with two wrist bands in leather and hard rubber and includes an Allen wrench for changing bands. We’ve included an optional extended band so that you can wear your watch over outerwear.  That way your SureShot™ is available anytime you need it.The Field Ops Watch is a great value for the number of features and quality of materials.  The high-density polycarbonate case, proprietary software, digital compass and multiple features give you an outstanding watch that looks great and works hard.

Awesome Value! Awesome Tool! September 23, 2008
"I bought this watch 2 years ago for hunting and long range shooting. I was impressed from the start! All the data inputs are easily entered and easily changed if needed. The watch is extremely comfortable and durable. I gave all my other watches up for this one. I now where Field Ops watch to work and for everyday use. I still have the original (2 yrs old!) battery working fine! All the data matches up with the most currently available software. I used this tool to help me adjust my scope to make an accurate 750 yard shot!"

Best Tactical/Shooting/Hunting Watch available. September 3, 2008
"I purchased the Field OPS version a couple of months ago. I am a target shooter and hunter. I first was a little sketchy about buying this watch, initailly thinking that it was a "gimmick" or something. As I looked into it deeper and realized that it uses well known software from a well known company, I was becomeing more certian that this watch was no gimmick.. I compared the software to a few other popular programs, inputing all the same settings, I always came up with the same readings, or extremely close to.. The one thing I wish it did have was different caliber memory slots so you could just switch between calibers easily, however this is not that big of a deal because ALL the settings are so easily changed and you only have to change the ones you kneed to. You can basically change all the settings of the ballistic software in a matter of seconds if needed. I think this is Ideal for the hunter that likes to shoot long range and wants to place the bullet accuratly. You can change the shooting angle/temp/altitude, on the fly, in seconds, which is needed for different terrain and all of which can effect the bullet severly. I also like the durability of the watch, it is from china but it is very Stout and well made..

Play with the Demo on this site and you'll be buying it.."

Okay August 29, 2008
"This watch is fine except for the band. The quick release on mine does not have enough tension. I dove into the lake the other day and it popped off. I managed to find it after I put my scuba gear on. I wear it loosely and then just wearing it to work the other day it just popped off again. Just be careful or you could lose it. With an upcoming deployement (again) I was planning on utilizing this watch on my wrist but I may just put it in my ruck"
