Sharp Watch Shout Out: Caravelle Sea Hunter

Like many watch companies, Bulova has been reaching deep into their historical trove of watch models and designs for inspiration and cool watches to modernize and re-issue.  One such watch is the Caravelle Sea Hunter. An iconic design from the 1960s, it has returned with a modern Miyota 8215 automatic movement. This modern Sea Hunter is a 39mm diameter watch with a 42-hour power reserve and 200-meters (666 feet) of water resistance. The watch has a domed crystal and an antique lume look. I think it looks great and that's why it gets a sharp watch shout out!

If you want to swap bracelets or straps, this Caravelle has quick release spring bars. You can find this one with the gold tone stainless steel case and greeen dial here at my Amazon affiliate link.  I have seen genuine vintage Caravelle Sea Hunters on auction sites at prices up to $4000! In comparison, this one is a steal at under $300.

You can also find variants of watches at other online outlets. I've seen versions with leather straps and more traditional stainless steel tone and various other retailers and jewelry stores. Caravelle is positioned as an affordable brand and JC Penney has a very nice rubber strap version for sale online.
