Hello friends. I'm a complete novice about Swatch and I was just wondering if anyone knew of any Swatch with a Field dial or perhaps an "Explorer" dial with 3-6-9-12 Arabic markers.
In other words, is there any Swatch model with a dial like any of these?:

Why a Swatch? Is it a question of price or preference?

Plenty of watches like the third one, the Rolex, but if you’re not looking to pay Rolex prices, google Baltany Explorer or Pagani Explorer and get a homage.

Similarly, if you’re reluctant to afford a Benrus, or Hamilton, google Tandorio watches.

Or check out Seiko or, generally, eBay

Smiths Everest, if you can find one..I have an explorer 1 and one is still on my list

Or Hamilton Khaki Field mechanical watch I owned in the last and rate highly (and in the swatch family)

If it has to be a swatch

OK, I guess I should've said that those are all my watches and I was just curious about Swatch versions with similar dials. Thank you for posting.
