Amazon.com Product Description

Famed for impeccable time-keeping accuracy, the Bulova company continues to produce timepieces of exquisite design and performance. The Bulova Men's Marine Star Calendar Watch is a handsome example of Bulova craftsmanship. A gold-tone stainless steel band joins to a circular stainless steel case. A black dial is framed by a black, unidirectional bezel that also features screw-down embellishments and gold-tone Arabic numerals in 10-minute increments. Gold-tone stick minute markers, luminescent skeleton hands, and luminescent hour indicators stand out against the dark background. A date window at the three o'clock position and gold-tone Bulova logo at the 12 o'clock round out this timepiece. The Bulova Men's Marine Star Calendar Watch is water resistant to 330 feet.

The Bulova Story

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.

This was the first Bulova watch I have ever ordered. It is a beautiful watch and has a quality look and feel of a much more expensive watch. You'll enjoy wearing this watch.
