The ADPT Series 1 Dual-Time is a compact automatic watch with a colorful layered dial and a caller-style GMT function. Its independently set 24-hour hand can track a second time zone while the main hour hand stays put—useful for keeping an eye on home time or another location. The two documented versions are Aqua Berry and Mossy Shale.
What is the ADPT Series 1 Dual-Time?
ADPT stands for “All Day, Purpose, and Terrain,” pronounced “adapt.” Worn & Wound describes the Series 1 as a collaboration with BOLDR Supply Co. based on BOLDR’s Venture model. The watches launched in 2022 as ADPT’s first move into watches, according to Worn & Wound’s March 12, 2024 announcement, which was published in partnership with ADPT. Worn & Wound’s launch article provides the detailed published specifications and design description.
Published dimensions are 38 mm across, 44 mm lug-to-lug, and 13.6 mm thick. The listed materials and features include a titanium case, sapphire crystal, screw-down crown at four o’clock, 120-click unidirectional bezel, and 200 m water resistance. These are manufacturer-related published specifications reported in the launch coverage, not independent test results. Mainspring’s review also reports 20 mm strap spacing and a US-made single-pass strap. Mainspring’s review
How the caller-style GMT hand works
The Seiko NH34 movement drives an independently set 24-hour hand. Worn & Wound calls this a “caller” GMT: rather than moving the local hour hand independently for travel, you can keep that main hand on local time and set the 24-hour hand to show another time zone. This setup suits someone who regularly checks a second location, such as home time, without needing to change the main hour display.

For travel, the practical distinction is that the 24-hour hand is the independently set second-time-zone indicator; the source describes adjusting the 12-hour hand to local time while setting the 24-hour hand to home time. The launch article also describes using the hand with the bezel as a basic compass technique. That is a described use, not a tested navigation feature or a substitute for a dedicated compass.
Aqua Berry and Mossy Shale: what differs?
Both versions share the same described layout: layered dials, luminous markers, a date display at six o’clock, and a two-tone bezel insert that divides the 24-hour scale into day and night. Their distinction is primarily the color treatment.

| Version | Published color details | Shared dial and bezel features |
|---|---|---|
| Aqua Berry | Blue and teal tones, a berry-magenta chapter ring, and tangerine accents on the 24-hour index and hand. | Layered dial, luminous markers, date at six, and a two-tone day/night bezel insert. |
| Mossy Shale | Greens and grays with blue and beige details and pink accents. | Layered dial, luminous markers, date at six, and a two-tone day/night bezel insert. |
In practical terms, the brighter Aqua Berry palette places stronger emphasis on the magenta and tangerine accents, while Mossy Shale uses a more muted green-and-gray base with smaller contrasting details. The published description does not establish a difference in specification or function between the variants.
Is it a good travel watch?
Its 24-hour hand is useful for monitoring another time zone, and the 200 m water-resistance rating and screw-down crown are substantial published specifications for a watch intended to be worn beyond the desk. The titanium case and 38 mm width may also appeal to someone seeking a smaller-diameter watch, though fit depends on wrist shape and the 44 mm lug-to-lug and 13.6 mm thickness still matter.

The caller-style GMT is not the same setting approach as a traveler’s GMT, where the local hour hand can be adjusted independently while the 24-hour hand continues tracking home time. If frequent time-zone changes are central to your use, compare the movement’s setting behavior with that of other GMT watches before choosing. No comparative product testing is available here, so fit, readability, and practical travel performance should not be treated as independently verified.
