Tapered lugs secure the solid steel case to a ruggedly handsome steel link bracelet made up of brushed and polished pieces.

About Bulova
In 1875, a young Czech immigrant named Joseph Bulova set up shop in New York City, and a legendary American watch brand was born. Bulova was trained as a jeweler, and his expertise carried over into his watchmaking career, which began around 1911 with boudoir clocks and pocket watches, and soon evolved to include what was then one of the latest and most fashionable technological innovations: the wristwatch.

Bulova introduced its first line of wristwatches in 1919. The company grew and prospered, and soon early radio and television ads were declaring, "America runs on Bulova time." In the 1950s, continuing its legacy of innovation, Bulova introduced Accutron, the first electronic watch, and the first breakthrough in timekeeping technology in over 300 years. The Accutron timing mechanism was later adapted for use by NASA computers and a Bulova timer was even placed on the moon to control transmissions of data. Bulova timepieces have kept official time aboard Air Force One and have also served as official timepieces for U.S. Olympic teams.

Today, Bulova maintains its tradition of excellence in technology and design, offering a diverse collection of beautiful precision timepieces for every occasion.

Customer Reviews

Great watch!
This watch looks and feels great. It's very well built, all stainless-steel (some parts polished, others just brushed metal) in a beautiful composition. The clasp is very secure yet easy to use. It has a Boluva logo imprinted and the watch really feels secure when it's closed. The weight is perfect, not being too light (I don't like light watches, they seem cheap) but also not hard for an all-day use. It gives you just the perfect balance.

Inside the case the details are amazing! The back is black, but not solid black - it has a beatiful texture. A lot of detais inside are made of metal, like Bulova's logo, the outside part of the pointers and the outlines of the subdials and date displays. These itens shine a lot, what drives everyone's attention to it. By the way, the 8 diamonds just shine great, even better with sunlight, when the light reflected gets a multicolor aspect.

I think it was a great deal, because here in Brazil Bulova's regular watches costs over U$1,000.00, and the Marine Star Diamond isn't even available here. So, when I show up with a Bulova with diamonds there are a lot of "wows".

If you want a sophisticated watch, that can be discreet but also can't be ignored, that's the one!

Looks expen$ive
This is a beautiful watch that your friends will envy and think you spent too much on. Not overly flashy but still very professional. Sits nicely on the wrist with a comfortable band.

Amazing...
I bought this watch on special sale on Amazon for only $$149....a steal for this watch. When I looked 1 day after ordering, it was already $254. This is very beautiful watch..pictures can;t do justice.

The weight is good...not too heavy. The dial size is very decent..not big for my average size wrist..overall looks killer on wrist.

I'd recommend this watch strongly.
