When it comes to style, everything vintage is new again, and Bulova has wholeheartedly embraced that movement with an entirely new line of Chrongraph A “surfboard” watches. Inspired by the iconic “Surfboard” diver chronographs of the 1970s–so nicknamed “Surfboard” on account of the distinctive color swatch on the face that encircled the two sub dials–this latest iteration of the classic features a stainless steel case with a Pepsi-esque bezel, contrasting face and markers, and 200 meter water resistance. In terms of movements, you can opt for either a Swiss 27-jewel automatic in the limited edition version with cream face and steel bracelet, or a chronograph quartz movement in the blue face with perforated silicone band. Both versions of the Chronograph A are available for pre-order now with shipping estimated in April.
