Many timepieces are crafted from materials that are sourced from all over the world, but the VERO Watches are made with materials that have all been locally sourced to keep the production process lean and local. The watches are designed, prototyped, tested and serviced in Portland, Oregon in order to ensure that the attention to detail isn't lost throughout any aspect of the process.
The VERO Watches brand is currently offering a single timepiece -- the Verus -- which is available in three variations including DLC black coated stainless as well as two stainless steel models including one that has been bead blasted and another with a simple black dial. Each of the Verus timepieces features a 42mm case and three-hand automatic movement.
