Top 10 Watches for Halloween
It’s been said that on Halloween, you get to become anything that you want to be. At Feldmar we wholeheartedly agree with that sentiment, but would take it a step further—with the right timepiece, you can also become anything that you want to be.
Each one of our top ten watches for Halloween is a treat. The only trick is trying to decide which one you like best.
Bulgari OCTO FINISSIMO
“When the sun goes down…”
…and the full moon illuminates the night, you’ll step out in style with this signature men’s timepiece—the Bulgari Octo Finissimo. Features include a carbon case with matte finish, luminous rose gold crown, a transparent case back, and rose gold hands and indexes. More than just a Halloween watch, this one is giving us major fall vibes!
ULYSSE NARDIN BLAST 45MM
“The darkest nights produce the brightest stars…”
… and this dark and stormy Ulysse Nardin men’s watch is a star of uncompromising brilliance. Perfect for Halloween, the blue skeleton dial showcases bleeding-edge technology through a window into the very soul of Swiss watchmaking. Features include a titanium case, blue PVD titanium bezel, transparent case back, and sapphire crystal. The dial features Super-LumiNova on hands and indexes and a tourbillon cage. The blue rubber strap with self-deploying buckle is an ideal finishing touch.
Girard-Perregaux Laureato Skeleton Ceramic
“We’ve all got secret skeletons…”
… and every watch aficionado should have one as well. After more than 220 years as a prominent Swiss watchmaker, Girard-Perregaux still does things the way they always have—conceiving, developing and manufacturing their watch components entirely in-house. They consider this necessary to achieving perfection, and after seeing the Laureato Skeleton Ceramic, you’re sure to agree. This is a contemporary men’s watch made daringly bold by the exquisitely detailed skeleton dial. Elegant, sophisticated and designed to impress, with a black ceramic case, octagonal bezel and sapphire crystal case back, this is a watch that hides in the shadows, emerging suddenly to make it’s presence felt.
IWC Pilot’s Watch Chronograph 41 Top Gun
“I’ll stop wearing black when they make a darker color.”
The Addams Family got it right when they dropped this knowledge-bomb. What makes this one special is not only the black ceramic case and matching luminescent dial with Arabic numerals, but also the overall stealthy aesthetic of the men’s Chronograph Top Gun. The timepieces of the Pilot’s Watch collection share the same cockpit-inspired look and technical prowess as the originals from the 1930’s including iconic touches like a triangular index at 12 o’clock for maximum readability, and more modern ones like chronograph counters and day and date indicator. With an engraved case back, and anti-reflective convex sapphire glass, this is a watch stylish enough for day-to-day wear, yet durable enough for long nights spent hunting ghosts.
Hamilton Ventura Quartz
“Retro-future styling, uncompromised timekeeping”
For a timekeeping experience that’s truly out of this world. Hamilton is world-renowned for their combination of exceptional design and groundbreaking innovation, but they set a new standard with the original Ventura in 1957. Today’s Ventura, as worn by Agents J and K in the supernatural sci-fi trilogy Men in Black, sports the distinctive, trademark shield-shaped case crafted in stainless steel with a quartz movement and mineral crystal. This bold, striking watch has been meticulously designed for both men and women (and aliens, assuming they have a wrist). The sumptuous black calf leather strap is the perfect compliment.
Tudor Black Bay Ceramic 41mm
“I feel comfortable in black…”
… Johnny Cash originally said it, but with the Tudor Black Bay Ceramic watch tucked beneath the cuff of your midnight black Valentino suit, you’re sure to feel the same. This men’s model was originally designed as a one-of-a-kind exclusive for the annual charity event, OneWatch but Tudor has now made this striking version available to watch connoisseurs. Features include a matte black ceramic case, black PVD steel case back with sapphire crystal, black PVD unidirectional rotating steel bezel with black ceramic top ring and screw-down crown. The domed black dial features luminescent hands and hour markers. If there is watch that embodies the “luxe-goth” vibe, this is it.
Bell & Ross Instruments BR 01 Cyber Skull
“The skull is nature’s sculpture…”
… as this work of horological art makes clear. The watches that make up the Bell & Ross Instruments are justly famous for extreme accuracy and durability, for cutting-edge technology, and for the highest quality materials they are crafted from. The men’s Cyber Skull is certainly no exception, and it adds bold, flamboyant design to the list. The matte black ceramic case takes an audacious sculptural form, with an anti-reflective sapphire crystal. The black cyber skull dial features balance at 12 o’clock, a moving skull, and Super-LimiNova filled hour markers and hands. The sleek black rubber strap perfectly integrates with the case. And for the full Halloween effect, watch as the skull’s jaw “laughs” as you adjust the time!
Bulova Oceanographer Devil Diver
“Darkness falls across the land…”
…the midnight hour is close at hand. And with the men’s Bulova Oceanographer Devil Diver at your command, you’ll know precisely when the hour is struck. Like every watch in the Oceanographer collection, the Devil Diver is a durable, accurate, technologically advanced diver watch powered by a self-winding mechanical movement with a 42-hour power reserve. As befits the name, the Devil Diver is rated for water resistance to a depth of 666 feet. It features a stainless steel case with screw-down crown, and a striking black and orange unidirectional bezel tailor-made for Halloween. The bright orange three-hand dial is highlighted with luminescent hands and hour markers, and a date feature.
Frederique Constant Highlife Heart Beat
“Like the infamous scene in Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom…”
… this watch shows you its beating heart! A men’s timepiece that must truly be seen to appreciate the impeccable attention to detail and the exhilarating sense of design. It starts with a polished stainless steel case with see-through case back, and anti-glare convex sapphire crystal. The black dial decorated with a stylized globe is embellished with silver tone hands and indices, white luminous hands and indexes. And in the center, below the 12, an open aperture shows the inner movement – the true beating heart – of this extraordinary watch.
Breitling SuperOcean Automatic 36
“It’s the Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown!”
What list of Halloween watches could leave off this incredible orange watch? The original SuperOcean was designed to equip professional and military divers, and this model certainly does that, with water resistance to 300 meters. But the SuperOcean Automatic 36 is equally at home on dry land, perhaps at an upscale Halloween party where the theme is dress to impress. Features include a satin-brushed stainless steel case with screwed-in case back, unidirectional ratcheted bezel, and dual glareproof cambered sapphire.
