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.

I had been looking for a ladies watch that has the two colors, silver and gold together. I also require a watch that is water resistant, too. I found the perfect watch when I discovered this Bulova. The Bulova name was familiar to me because my grandfather always bought Bulovas for their quality. The styling of this watch is classic, and I have recieved so many compliments on it. The silver actually has a beautiful pewter tone to it, which adds a rich look to the bracelet. My jeweler removed four links to size it for me, and I wear this watch everyday. It is working perfectly and compliments whatever color jewelry I wear. I love the open design of the bracelet, and the easy read watch face, that has ALL of the numbers. Amazon had the best price, too. In my opinion, this watch is a "perfect purchase".

From store retailers to online catalogs, I spent a fair amount of time searching for a substantial birthday present for my best friend. I've been wanting to get her a watch for awhile ever since her first one broke down on her. I was looking for a replacement that was both elegant and petite. Eventually I found my way to this Bulova watch, which fit the bill for all the characteristics I was looking for with a surprisingly affordable price (81.82 at the time of purchase). While I can't recall how long it took for me to receive the watch from Amazon, the product itself was just as impressive to behold in person as it was in the website's gallery. The face is very easy to read with all the hours clearly marked. The heart-shaped links might be sappy/quirky for some, but definitely makes the watch look much nicer while adding a unique touch. The Bulova watch is incredibly beautiful, a trait that I wanted to match to it's owner.

A word of caution to others who are considering purchasing this product, this watch is very small! If you thought it looks small in the pictures, it'll look even smaller once you open the box. If it weren't for my long fingernails, the latch would have been a little bit more difficult to pull open. It's not much of a headache, but beware. For my friend's case however, it was perfect. In terms of fit, my friend has a fairly small wrist, so it worked out well for her. Although I did have it re-sized to about five links less prior to giving it. Even for something this small, I was also able to have a meaningful message, albeit concise, custom-engraved on the back of the watch. Overall, this is an exceptional watch that looks really nice, is easy to read, and has an unbeatable price. It might not be luxury, but it certainly made a huge smile on my best friend's face.

I actually was offered this as a replacement for a watch ordered that was out of stock and am I glad! This watch is so much prettier than the one I was going to get and the price was great (it was on sale). I bought it as a Christmas gift for my adult daughter and she loves it. She wears it all the time. Anyone looking for a pretty watch with both gold and white tones should buy this one. I would definitely buy it again.
