Detroit’s Shinola is on an environmental roll, and it just delivered one of the summer’s best watches. Its latest effort is the Sea Creatures watch which uses ocean tide plastic waste for the 40mm case and strap. In 8 vibrant ocean-inspired colors, the Sea Creatures watch even copies the shape of a submarine hatch for its case, and the organic nautical “squircle”-shaped dial even has ocean textures and details to pay homage to the environment the watch strives to protect. It’s powered by an Argonite 715 quartz movement, and there’s a date window at the 3 o’clock position. Even the storage pouch is made from upcycled airline uniforms. We’ll take ours in orange, please.
