Celebrating Bulova’s military heritage and the Veteran’s Watchmaker Initiative, a nonprofit organization whose focus is to teach war veterans, especially disabled veterans, the highly skilled art of watchmaking. The updated HACK watch features a Miyota 8S20-43A three-hand 21-jewel automatic movement with a 42 hour power reserve. The stainless steel case with a black dial and luminescent hands and markers also features a center track on the dial displaying 24H time.
The screw-back case features a glass insert with the VWI printed logo. The 96A259 features a case size of 38mm with thickness of 13.55mm, a domed mineral crystal glass, a green nylon strap with a tang buckle and water resistance to 30 meters.
What we love: WWII heritage aside where the original versions were supplied to the US Army requirement of a small, easy to read watch for the frontline troops, the heritage re-release is a total watch with the 38mm x 13.44mm case size, anti-reflective coated mineral glass and the luminous cathedral hands. The dial is clean and uncluttered.
The Bulava is a submarine-launched ballistic missile (SLBM) developed for the Russian Navy. Is it legal to sell it in Australia?
