Bulova welcomed the new year with a new line of timepieces, the Bulova Snorkel Collection, which draws inspiration from sharks, turtles, and marine life. This new collection complements other aquatic timepieces that were launched in the past, extending Bulova’s catalog.

“It is meant to create an extremely price-competitive sport watch, utilizing innovative materials while also celebrating what makse us passionate about the oceans, the seas, and marine life, a universe which is both mysterious, vibrant, and exciting and inspiring—all values we seek to embody in Bulova,” said Jeffrey Cohen, CEO of Citizen Watch America.

The brand opted for a material they’ve never used before—a hybrid ceramic case that performs well in different environments. Featuring a scratch-resistant casing, the new Bulova watch is quite durable and can retain its look for years.

It’s worth noting that the new collection is available in four different colors, which paint a clear picture of aquatic life and the aquatic environment.

The blue variant is based on the Caribbean Blue Tang fish, as it’s characterized by deep blue color accents, which adds some character to the whole timepiece.

The brown model, on the other hand, paints a clear picture of how a sea turtle glides through the ocean with a green strap, complemented by a brown dial.

Drawing inspiration from a clownfish, the orange version is a representation of the fish’s playful spirit. It comes with an orange strap that blends smoothly with the white dial.

DB Kind of Two Season 3

The De Bethune x Swizz Beatz partnership dates back to 2020 and was initiated by rapper and record producer Kasseem Daoud Dean, aka Swizz Beatz. He was looking for a brand that could manufacture a minimalistic piece with a modern touch, something that could tap into both worlds but still look stylish. The first collaboration, the DW5, was highlighted by a minimalistic skeleton design complemented by a contemporary finish.

Since the first model was quite successful, the pairing worked on another piece—the DBD. Now, De Bethune and Swizz Beatz are back at it again with another new piece, the Reversible DB Kind of Two GMT, which features two different dials designed to track time in two geographical zones. While the front face has the main dial, the back doubles as the second dial.
