MIL-Ships Special Edition Green Dial Nylon Strap Watch

Honoring Bulova’s storied history with the armed forces and inspired by a rare prototype from 1957 developed for the U.S. Navy, the Special Edition MIL-SHIPS Bronze is a tribute to innovation and fine craftsmanship. Designed to commemorate Bulova’s 150th Anniversary, this exquisite timepiece blends historical significance with modern precision, making it a must-have for collectors and enthusiasts alike.

Crafted with meticulous attention to detail, this newly reimagined watch features a striking sandblast-finished case made of CuSn8 bronze, a material known for its durability and distinctive rose-gold hue, reminiscent of 19th-century copper diving helmets. Over time, the bronze naturally develops a patina, enhancing its rugged appeal while adding a protective layer that ensures lasting durability. The army green dial, complemented by a matching aluminum bidirectional bezel insert, exudes a bold yet refined aesthetic that captures the essence of military heritage.

The vintage-inspired handset, complete with super luminous hands and markers, ensures optimal readability in low-light conditions. A unique bi-color moisture strip indicator enhances the functionality, offering a nod to its military roots. The double-domed sapphire crystal, treated with a five-layer anti-reflective coating, provides superior clarity and scratch resistance, ensuring the watch remains pristine even in the most demanding environments.

Designed for both durability and comfort, the watch is paired with an upgraded 18mm army green strap, crafted from a hybrid of rubber and Cordura® nylon. This combination not only enhances wearability but also ensures resilience against harsh conditions. Powering this remarkable timepiece is a 21-jewel automatic movement with an impressive 60-hour power reserve, delivering reliable precision for extended wear.

Further elevating its collectible value, the MIL-SHIPS Bronze features a commemorative 150th Anniversary embossed case back, serving as a testament to Bulova’s enduring legacy. With a water resistance of up to 200 meters, this watch is built to withstand underwater adventures while maintaining its refined appeal. Delivered in premium packaging complete with a storybook detailing its rich history, this heritage-inspired timepiece is an extraordinary addition to any collection, celebrating both the past and the future of horological excellence.
