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.

Well-made, handsome watch
I bought this watch as a gift for my (very picky) boyfriend. I wanted something that was nice enough for him to wear to the office, but casual enough for when he dresses down. This watch is a perfect combination. He loves it. Came in a nice Bulova box on a small pillow. This is a very handsome watch with a lot of features (he has enjoyed playing with it). The picture doesn't do it justice.
Bulova Chronograph
The watch arrived with a problem, i.e. the large second hand would not return to its true 12 O'clock position on reset. Amazon immediately authorized a replacement that day and provided me a prepaid UPS shipping label for the return. I'm completey satisifed with the transaction. The watch is very attractive and keeps precise time. I think this watch is an excellent value compared to other chronographs in this quality/price range.
A true bargain
Bulova makes good watches, and this one is no exception. It's a fantastic smart-casual watch. Great weight, great looks - the picture doesn't really do it justice. I recently bought several watches all at once on Amazon after hours of researching and comparing. I only found this one at the very end and threw it in my basket (it was an impluse buy). It turned out to be my favorite of the lot. Watches aren't cheap. If you know that, you'll appreciate that this watch is cheaply priced. It really is a bargin at any price under $300. Enjoy.
