Inspired by the perilous journeys of early American explorers navigating the heartland between their home states, the TrailTrekker pays homage to their unwavering determination. Although absent from those historical ventures, the TrailTrekker is envisioned as the companion of those who braved the rugged terrain, offering durability and reliability for modern-day explorers.

At its core, the TrailTrekker is a blend of two beloved models: the Raven Trekker and NODUS Contrail. By integrating the flagship Raven diver with NODUS' quintessential travel watch, the result is a subdued yet robust timepiece ready for any adventure, whether on the trail or beyond.

Crafted from 316L stainless steel, the TrailTrekker boasts a matte grey DLC finish reminiscent of the Midwest's rugged terrain. Enhanced with diamond-like coating and Cerakote® application, it promises unmatched resilience against the elements. The sand-colored Cerakote® accents on the fixed bezel and dial further underscore its durability and adventurous spirit.

Emblazoned with caravans symbolizing the historic journeys from Kansas to California, the TrailTrekker's caseback honors the pioneers' enduring spirit. Powering this exceptional timepiece is the Miyota 9075 automatic GMT movement, marrying Japanese precision with versatility for travelers.

Designed for both utility and style, the TrailTrekker features large applied block indices filled with BGW9 Super LumiNova for enhanced visibility in low-light conditions. Its dual-branded, semi-gloss black dial ensures clarity without distraction, while the bi-color day/night indicator adds functional flair.
