Watch Spotlight: Bulova Archive Series - Military A-15 Pilot

Bulova has a long history of involvement with the US military.  It has made field watches, aviation watches, and dive watches. One aviation-inspired watch that I recommend is the Bulova Archive Series - Military A-15 pilot.  The watch is an automatic with a hack feature and 30-meters of water resistance. It's listed on Amazon here as the Bulova Archive Series: Military. A little research on the Bulova site reveals this watch to be the Bulova A-15 Pilot. It looks like a field watch, but has aviation-inspired features.

The Bulova Archive Series - Military A-15 Pilot watch

The Bulova A-15 is an automatic watch with an unusual feature: two rotating discs within the dial.  One disc sits appears to be the minute track, but works like the unidirectional bezel of a dive watch to record elapsed time. The other disc just inboard of the first one  provides hour markings and can be set to provide the time in another timezone.  These unexpected features make this watch a big leap above baseline field watches and make this a watch collectors should consider. If you like this watch, it may be time to make a purchase here.
