Spinnaker's 6 listed models run $280 to $500 at list, and 3 of them were selling for $209 on the brand's own site on 19 September 2026. The 2026 line is the Fleuss 40 on a Miyota 9039 at $500; everything under it runs a Miyota 8215 or a Seiko NH35 or NH34.
Checked 19 September 2026 · list prices on the maker's site that day unless marked street
Spinnaker sells in dollars from spinnaker-watches.com, and the data on this page is what those product pages and the site's product feed showed on 19 September 2026. Nothing here comes from the brand's history, because none was fetched; what the pages settle is price and movement, and both need reading carefully. Prices vary by colourway on the same listing: the Bradner runs $209 to $370 depending on the dial, the Fleuss $209 to $390, and the Croft Mid-Size shows a $280 compare-at figure against $209 selling. The table gives the current-line list price and, where the feed showed one, the cheapest live colourway beside it. The bracket lists on this site go by the list figure.
The movement is on each page and differs by model, which is the second thing to check. The Bradner and Fleuss run the Miyota 8215, 21,600 bph and non-hacking. The Fleuss 40 runs the Miyota 9039, 28,800 bph, thinner and hacking. The Croft Mid-Size runs the Seiko NH35, and the 2 GMTs, Croft 39 and Bradner, the Seiko NH34, a caller GMT whose 24-hour hand is the one you set. All 6 are 316L steel under sapphire with anti-reflective coating; water resistance is 150 m on the Croft and Fleuss lines and 180 m on the 2 Bradners; lugs are 20 mm except the 43 mm Fleuss at 22 mm. Three of the 6 pages do not describe the bezel, and the table says so.
Read the table by movement, since the case families overlap it. Miyota 8215: Fleuss, Bradner. Seiko NH35: Croft Mid-Size. Seiko NH34 GMT: Croft 39 GMT, Bradner GMT. Miyota 9039: Fleuss 40. The Bradners are the 42 mm compressor-style cases with an internal bezel, 50 mm lug-to-lug and 14 to 15 mm thick; the Crofts and the Fleuss 40 are 39 to 40 mm on a 47 mm lug-to-lug. The other Croft lines the feed showed, the Pioneer at $270 and the 42 mm Skeleton at $299 to $465, and the 145th-anniversary Fleuss 40 colourways at $450, have no full rows and stay in this sentence.

The Spinnaker to buy on price: on the check date the Nomad colourway (SP-5100-02) was $209 against a $280 compare-at. 40 mm, 47 mm lug-to-lug, 13.8 mm thick, Seiko NH35, 150 m, sapphire with AR, 20 mm lugs. The page does not state the bezel type, and 150 m is the lowest rating in the range, shared with the Fleuss lines. The San Martin 6200 at $275 list is 2 mm smaller, 0.8 mm thinner and rated 200 m on the same NH35; the Dan Henry 1970 at $320 gives 200 m and a compressor ring. At $209 this is the case for Spinnaker; at $280 the San Martin is the case against.

The biggest Spinnaker and the one to measure first: 43 mm, 51 mm lug-to-lug, 13 mm thick, on 22 mm lugs, 1 mm longer than the Bradners and 4 mm longer than the rest. Miyota 8215, 150 m, sapphire with AR, a unidirectional bezel the page describes no further, Swiss Newlite lume, $305 for the fetched Horizon Blue and $209 to $390 across the colourways. The Fleuss 40 at $500 is the same name 3 mm smaller and 2 mm thinner on the hacking 9039. The Islander 43 mm at $329 is the same diameter with a ceramic insert, 200 m and a day-date NH36, 1 mm thicker and 5 mm shorter; make that comparison before paying list.
The compressor-style Spinnaker, with an internal bidirectional bezel under the crystal rather than a ring outside it: 42 mm, 50 mm lug-to-lug, 14 mm thick, Miyota 8215, 180 m, sapphire with AR, Super-LumiNova, 20 mm lugs. The 2026 fumé and guilloché dials (SP-5062-AA to DD and -99) list at $370; the older Ink Black is $285 and the Olive $209 on the same site. The 8215 does not hack, which at $370 a buyer may mind and at $209 will not. The Bradner GMT at $490 is this case 1 mm thicker with an NH34 inside. The Seiko 5 Sports SRPD55 at $350 is 42.5 mm on a 46 mm lug-to-lug, 4 mm shorter, with Hardlex in place of sapphire.

The smaller of the 2 Spinnaker GMTs: 39 mm, 47 mm lug-to-lug, 13 mm thick, Seiko NH34 caller GMT, 150 m, sapphire with AR, 20 mm lugs, listed August 2025 at a $445 compare-at with $356 selling, bracelet and rubber strap in the box. The page does not describe the bezel. A caller GMT sets the 24-hour hand independently and leaves the local hour to the crown; a jumping local hour needs a Miyota 9075, which starts at $595 in the Islander Republic Traveler. The Seiko SSK001 at $495 is the NH34's cousin at 42.5 mm with Hardlex; the Islander GMT at $369 is the same NH34 at 42 mm. At $356 the Croft is the 39 mm option.
The thickest Spinnaker at 15 mm, on the Bradner case's 50 mm lug-to-lug: 42 mm, Seiko NH34 caller GMT, 180 m, internal bidirectional bezel, sapphire with AR, Swiss Newlite lume, 20 mm lugs, $490, an extra rubber strap in the box. Against the Croft 39 GMT it is the same movement in a 3 mm bigger, 2 mm thicker case with an internal bezel, for $45 more at list and $134 more against the Croft's selling price. The Islander Automatic GMT at $369 is the same NH34 at 42 mm and 14 mm, 200 m; the Spinnaker gives the compressor look and 20 m less. On a wrist under 7 inches the Croft 39 is the one.
The 2026 Spinnaker, listed March 2026, and the only one on a high-beat movement: Miyota 9039, 28,800 bph, hacking, no date, in a 40 mm case at 47 mm lug-to-lug and 11 mm thick, the thinnest in the range by 2 mm. 150 m, sapphire with AR, Super-LumiNova, 20 mm lugs, $500 for the Royal Splash; the 145th-anniversary colourways are $450. The page does not describe the bezel. $500 is the top of the under-$500 bracket exactly, on the line rather than inside it. The Islander Northport at $449 runs the dated Miyota 9015 at 200 m and 12.5 mm; the Vaer D4 at $429 is solar, 39 mm and US-assembled. The Fleuss 40's case is the thin one.
Spinnaker is for a buyer who wants a sapphire crystal and a Japanese automatic for around $209, and who will pick the colourway by the price the site shows for it rather than the one at the top of the page. The cases are not small: the Crofts and the Fleuss 40 at 47 mm lug-to-lug suit a 6.75-inch wrist and up, and the Bradners at 50 mm and the Fleuss at 51 mm want more. Look elsewhere if the movement should hack, since the 8215 in the Bradner and Fleuss does not and the San Martin 6200 at $275 and the Islanders on the NH35 and NH36 do; if you want a jumping local hour, since both Spinnaker GMTs are callers and the Islander Republic Traveler at $595 is the cheapest Miyota 9075 in the data; or if a stated bezel specification matters, since 3 of the 6 pages omit it.
Where it sits against the field
At $209 to $305 the Spinnakers sit with the San Martin 6200 ($275, NH35, 200 m), the Dan Henry 1970 ($320, NH35, 200 m) and the Islander 38 mm and 43 mm ($329, NH36, 200 m), and give up 50 m to each while matching them on sapphire. At $370 to $490 the Bradners are priced against the Seiko 5 Sports SRPD55 ($350) and the SSK001 GMT ($495), which give the name and Hardlex; Spinnaker gives sapphire and a compressor case. At $500 the Fleuss 40 meets the Islander Northport ($449, Miyota 9015, 12.5 mm) and the Vaer D4 ($429, solar, 11.96 mm, US-assembled), and its 11 mm is the thinnest of the three.
Questions people ask
Where are Spinnaker watches made?
Not stated on the product pages fetched. Each page gives the movement (Miyota 8215 or 9039 from Japan, Seiko NH35 or NH34 from Seiko's TMI) and the case material (316L steel), and no assembly location. The brand sells in dollars from spinnaker-watches.com, and this site records only what those pages say.
Are Spinnaker watches automatic?
All 6 models listed here are. Two movement makers: Miyota (the 8215 in the Bradner and Fleuss, the 9039 in the Fleuss 40) and Seiko's TMI (the NH35 in the Croft Mid-Size, the NH34 GMT in the Croft 39 GMT and Bradner GMT). The 8215 does not hack; the others do. No quartz model has a row here.
Why do Spinnaker prices differ on the same watch?
Because the price is set per colourway, not per model. On 19 September 2026 the Bradner ran $209 (Olive) to $370 (the 2026 fumé dials) on one listing, the Fleuss $209 to $390, and the Croft Mid-Size showed $209 selling against a $280 compare-at. The bracket lists on this site use the list figure; the table shows both.
