1971 Bulova Sea King "Whale"
submitted by

I’ve had this for a while, it’s an old picture, but I thought some folks on here would like to see it. It’s my favourite one in the collection to wear, honestly. Fully manual wind, no seconds hand, 33mm, so definitely not for everyone, but I personally love it. Super lightweight, easy movement to service, and the whale is adorable. It was also reasonably priced when I got it.

Looks really lovely and sits on your wrist well
I know a lot of people don’t like the look of a small watch on a man’s wrist but I really like it, especially with vintage pieces. I tend to stick with 33-36mm where lots of people with my wrist size would go for 38-42mm. I do have some in that range but they don’t get worn much if I’m honest. I mostly keep them for sentimental value.
