MIL SHIPS
Archivo Histórico
El MIL-SHIPS-W-2181 de edición limitada del que solo se fabricarán 1000 unidades es una novedad en la serie Archive y se basa en un prototipo que nunca se comercializó, por lo que en 2021 los aficionados a la relojería tendrán por primera vez la oportunidad de poseer este reloj de lujo. El reloj deportivo está inspirado en un reloj desarrollado para la Marina de los Estados Unidos y cuenta con una tira de papel única en el dial que indica si ingresó humedad al reloj y cambiará de color si la resistencia al agua (que es de hasta 200 metros) empieza a fallar. Otra característica única de este reloj es que el anillo superior solo gira cuando es presionado. El dial negro mate está engastado en una caja de acero inoxidable y tiene una correa negra NATO hecha con un material de nylon finamente tejido hecho para soportar el contacto continuo con el agua. Este reloj único es lo suficientemente versátil como para usarlo todos los días, pero tiene las características para hacer frente a cualquier otro reloj de estilo deportivo en el mercado actual.

Superb retro diver
There has been some mixed reviews for the Bulova Mil-Ships Limited Edition. I’m a happy owner of this version and keep getting positive comments and questions as this has become my favorite to wear. Among many of my watches, this is maybe the most interesting one to wear given the 16mm strap (I’m mostly wearing a 1965 NAM original strap which I found more interesting than the black one supplied, but the black one being true to the time, works well also). I’m not a fan of very commercialized watches and the Limited Edition offers something else. The Sellita SW200 movement with a 41h power reserve, has turned out much better than expected with less than daily accuracy of less than +/- 5 seconds. All in all, if you want a truly unique watch, go for the Limited Version (I would not consider the unlimited one with the Miyota 82S0 movement) which you can pick up at discounted prices as long as inventory is there.

Unique Watch with a rich history
It was hard to pass up the limited edition version of this watch. Didn't even know Bulova made this piece until reading an article in Hodinkee about collecting vintage Fifty Fathoms. A vintage FF is way above my pain tolerance for a vintage piece but found out Bulova put their prototype from the late 50's into production & I followed the bread crumbs. With it's history & honoring the original design, this is just a cool, vintage looking piece & everything about just works for me - so as I said, it was hard to pass this up & I'm glad I didn't. Bonus is it's also suitable for diving.
Great Retro Diver
The MIL-SHIPS is a really great retro diver. True to the original prototypes, the watch has a great 50s look. The watch is really well made, and the push-to-rotate bezel is a nice touch. I read some negative reviews of the narrow 16mm strap, but thay hasn't bothered me at all.
