Shinola The Mackinac 40 MM Sailing Watch: Inspired By A Century-old Boat Race

Inspired by the century-old tradition of the Bayview Mackinac Boat Race from Port Huron to Mackinac Island, the Shinola The Mackinac 40 mm Sailing Watch is a true one-of-a-kind automatic chronograph. It is the first Shinola timepiece with an automatic, single-eye chronograph yacht-timer functionality aka a regatta timer, which is a unique chronographic function designed for sailboat racing.
