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.

5.0 out of 5 stars Elegant, Gorgeous, and Practical, September 5, 2006

This watch was an investment for me, as I would be entering into the business world. I wanted something that would look classy but that would also have a little bit of 'bling' and this watch ended up being a perfect marriage of the two. It's very comfortable and easy to read. The diamond accents and the silver & gold are the perfect combination of galmour and practicality. I can see myself wearing this watch for years to come and I can only say good things about it!

I love bulova because there's something classic about it, and they offer a lot of styles. This is my second bulova watch with diamonds. The first was a lovely rectangular watch, it has been discontinued, or I might have gotten it again. This watch is lovely and a bit more unique. I love that the face has a faint grid pattern etched into what I assume is mother of pearl. The diamond accents instead of numbers are a nice touch. The only thing I'd like is for the diamonds on the outside to be a bit larger, but hey, a minor thing. There are few watches like this one, quite unique, and you can't go wrong with two-toned, as it allows you to wear any kind of jewelry. This watch sold at the jewelry stores for over $400 last year, and I happily snapped it up online for less than half that (though not from Amazon, actually).

For the price of this watch, it is the nicest on the market. It was a gift for my wife, who loves it. It is classy, but subtle. A very nice piece.
