The no-date variant of the NH35 platform, eliminating the date complication entirely for clean dial designs without a date window. Identical in every other specification to the NH35 and NH36 siblings. Popular with modders and microbrands building minimalist or pilot-style watches where a dateless dial is preferred. The absence of the date mechanism simplifies the movement slightly but does not affect height.

Owners widely praise the Vero Watch Company Smokey Bear for its cohesive design, with particular admiration for the bronze case's finish and patina potential, the textured dial, and the thematic hands and graphics. Reviewers and owners alike highlight its readability and the quality of the polished steel bezel ring. Some owners find the included leather strap stiff and note difficulties with strap changes due to undrilled lugs. The Seiko NH38 automatic movement is considered reliable, with one owner observing that it rarely needs winding even after time off the wrist. Overall, owners rate the Vero Watch Company Smokey Bear highly for its attentive design and quality finishing at the price point.
