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
Simple and sufficient
I only bought this watch because of a promotional sale that ultimately made this watch cheaper than the cost to replace the battery in my existing watch. That said, I've been happy with it so far. This watch is very simple and lightweight, and very unlike the heavy, thick metal designs that I expect from Bulova. Despite its airy weight, it feels sturdy and durable. The only design quibble is that the adjustment knob is hard to pry out from the body. The styling is a matter of personal opinion. The bright, colorful font used for the numbers is very unlike the signature designs of Frank Lloyd Wright (it looks more like a house number font designed by J Crew to me). I was afraid that the font would make it look like a kid's watch, but it's not as gaudy as I thought it might be (and no one has made any snide remarks about it yet!).
Excellent Watch....
I really love this watch. For the $10 price (After $50 store credit from Amazon), I really love it.
great watch but where is the credit?
Heard about this watch online and am a fan of FLW, so I bought it. At the time there was some sort of deal that after 60 days, Amazon would provide a credit of $50 or $60 to your account? but I have misplaced the deal, and it's been 90 days and still no credit. Did anyone else buy this watch for that deal, and if so, have you rec'd your credit?
By the way, I like the watch - nice and thin, like the FLW theme, keeps pretty good time...
