Zodiac x Huckberry released a new super sea wolf in bronze. Limited to 182 watches this gussied-up Super Sea Wolf will be sure to sell out fast. Especially given the surprisingly reasonable $1,895 price tag. So, let’s throw on our bronze dive helmets and dive into the new collaborative release.
Hello old friend
The super sea wolf stays true to its roots but the addition of bronze to the bezel steps it up a notch. Since this is the super sea wolf it has the same dimensions and movement that we love in the super sea wolf.
Wild and fun changes to iconic watches while retaining the soul and heritage of the watch, is where Zodiac thrives. So it’s no surprise that the addition of bronze to the sea wolf is nothing short of a show-stopper.
They didn’t huck it up.
With bronze watches being fairly popular these days I suppose it was just a matter of time for Zodiac to have their own. But unlike so many watch brands that do a bronze watch, Zodiac isn’t over the top with too much bronze. It’s a sea wolf with just a dash of bronze. It’s reserved to the point of feeling well-refined. It is just enough Huckberry added to Zodiac goodness. It’s a piece that sort of stops you in your tracks and makes you take notice because it’s familiar but different. Like that friend who cleans up well when they put on a dress shirt and tie once every blue moon. You’re surprised they clean up so well. But with Zodiac, it really shouldn’t come as a surprise.
I tend to hate bronze watches. It’s too much for me. Then when they do something crazy and make the whole dang thing and the bracelet bronze, it’s too much. So I generally dismiss bronze watches and show no interest in them. Is that a fair approach? No. And I know it. And too bad it’s the way it is. But when I was first introduced to this watch, I loved it. Now it should be no surprise to anyone at this point that I’m a huge Zodiac fan. But given my detest for bronze watches I was shocked that I loved it. It’s because it’s done so well it’s that restrained use of bronze that makes it great. It’s not in your face it’s just enough. It is balanced and done so well. It’s a watch that will catch your eye and make you want to wear it. The more you wear it in all sorts of scenarios, the more it will patina, and that patina will bring a depth of beauty and personality to the restrained refined beauty. That will only make it better.
Zodiac x Huckberry nailed it with this one.
