Andrew Perez of ASTOR+BANKS has just created a timepiece for those who may not want to worry about owning more than one watch. The new Sea Ranger strikes the right balance between dress and sport in a military-style watch that’s made with the right stuff including Swiss automatic movement, a beautifully crafted dial with a 24-hour dial inset, 300-meter water resistance, and a solid stainless steel bracelet with links designed for optimal comfort. And unlike most boutique watch brands, the Sea Ranger is designed and assembled in Chicago, and it’s unabashedly engraved on the caseback. The 40mm diameter means it’s perfectly sized for everyday wear, and the three dial and two case color provide great style options. The pre-order phase has been sold out, but you can jump in when the Kickstarter campaign starts in June.

Huckberry’s Essential Holiday Gift Guide
Unzip your coat and have some mulled wine on the house—you’ve arrived at your final gifting destination: The Holiday Gift Guide. It’s like your friendly neighborhood one-stop holiday shop, except instead of balsa wood ornaments, ours is packed with thoughtful gifts for everyone on your list. Future heirlooms, small-but-significant stocking stuffers, and gear for getting out there (or staying in)—are all right here. There’s no music playing in the background though, so you’ll just have to hum Bing Crosby while you click around instead.
