Here at Worn & Wound, we’re intrigue by what Bulova’s brought to the table with their new Snorkel collection. So, when the Bulova team came to us with the idea of creating an exclusive timepiece based on the Snorkel platform for Windup Watch Fair San Francisco—one that captures the spirit of the city by the Bay while marking a historic milestone—we were thrilled.

Bulova Snorkel Windup San Francisco Limited Edition

Introducing the custom-designed Bulova Snorkel Windup Watch Fair San Francisco Edition, a timepiece that commemorates 150 years of Bulova and 10 years of the Windup Watch Fair. Drenched in a rich, burnt orange hue inspired by the iconic Golden Gate Bridge, this bold take on a modern classic blends vintage dive-watch DNA with the unmistakable warmth and industrial elegance of San Francisco’s most famous landmark. Flip the watch over and you’ll find a stunning caseback illustration by the talented Alex Asfour (@Alex247), whose artwork captures the soul of the city with vibrant, stylized flair.

Limited to 50 pieces, this Snorkel isn’t just any watch—it’s a collectible memento of heritage, design, and community. Based on the brand’s iconic Oceanographer line of sport and dive watches, the new Snorkel collection blends vintage design with modern materials. With an innovative new Hybrid Ceramic 41mm case, classic has met contemporary all while maintaining an affordable price point. With 100m of water resistance and an appropriately vintage-inspired tropic-style rubber strap, the Snorkel is ready for whatever aquatic adventure awaits. Powering the Bulova Snorkel is the Japanese-made Miyota 2115, a quartz movement accurate to approximately +/- 20 seconds per month, featuring hour, minute, seconds, and date.

Packaged in a custom-designed box that mirrors Asfour’s illustration, the presentation feels just as special as what’s inside. The exclusive bundle also includes an ADPT Riverstone Watch Case and a matching ADPT watch strap, perfectly curated to complete the look and experience. Available only at Windup Watch Fair San Francisco, this release is for enthusiasts who value storytelling, craftsmanship, and a deep connection to both time and place. Be sure to swing by the Bulova booth at Windup Watch Fair San Francisco to see this unique Limited Edition!
