5 Vintage-Inspired Watches That Will Make You Feel Young Again

2024-07-25 // SuperPodium
Discover 5 super-cool vintage-inspired watches that will bring back a sense of nostalgia and make you feel young again.

Instantly recognizable at a distance, the dive watch bezel was first invented in the 1950s and has quickly become one of the most popular features on a modern tool watch. Vintage-inspired watches have been making a comeback, with designs from the 80s now considered vintage. Here are 5 super-cool watches that will make you feel young again.

Casio Casiotron

For those who grew up in the 70s or 80s, the Casio Casiotron was likely their first watch. This watch has been brought back from the past to celebrate its 50th anniversary. It features all the clever functions you remember, like a world timer, stopwatch, timer, alarm, full auto calendar, and LED lighting. It also has modern upgrades like solar-powered technology, multiband 6 radio-controlled synchronization, and Bluetooth connectivity. With a solid stainless steel bracelet and a milled push-button clasp, this Casio is a nostalgic yet upgraded timepiece.

Citizen Aqualand J20007-09W

The Citizen Aqualand dive watch was a hit in the 1980s and has gained a cult following. The reimagined Aqualand J20007-09W stays true to the original design but adds a few modern touches. The case is PVD-coated black for a more discreet look, but it lights up in the dark with luminescent paint on the hands, markers, and dial. This cool watch is perfect for divers and watch enthusiasts alike.

Seiko Sportura Kinetic 9T82

In 1998, Seiko released the Sportura Kinetic 9T82, a unique chronograph with multiple subdials and a distinctive design. The new version retains the unconventional design but adds a 1/100 of a second chronograph and solar-powered movement. This watch is sure to catch attention and spark conversations with its avant-garde style.

Benrus Ultra-Deep Modern Recreation

Unlike other brands that resize their vintage recreations, Benrus has recreated their classic Ultra-Deep timepiece in its original proportions. This watch features a double-domed acrylic crystal, internal rotating bezel, and a familiar 5-link bracelet. With a modern movement and vintage appeal, this watch combines the best of both worlds.

Oris Big Crown Pointer Date Calibre 403

Oris has a long history of producing pointer date watches, and their Big Crown line has gained popularity. The Big Crown Pointer Date Calibre 403 returns to the model's roots with a polished surround, refined dial design, and an impressive in-house movement. With a 10-year warranty and 10-year service intervals, this watch is built to last.
