The Bulova Lunar Pilot Chronograph is a remarkable timepiece with a storied history. On August 2, 1971, during the Apollo 15 mission, a Bulova moon pilot chronograph was worn on the moon, making space exploration history. Now, Bulova commemorates this iconic moment with the Lunar Pilot Chronograph, a special edition timepiece.
Crafted with precision, this chronograph features a stainless steel screw-back case in a silver-tone finish and a black dial protected by a sapphire crystal. From the Precisionist Collection, the Lunar Pilot Chronograph showcases Bulova's proprietary Precisionist accuracy, offering 1/1,000-second precision over a twelve-hour time frame, with accuracy to within seconds a year.
The advanced movement, powered by Bulova's exclusive Precisionist-class torsional resonator, provides an extraordinary level of timing accuracy, superior to any mechanical watch on the market. This custom-engineered quartz movement features a vibration frequency of 262.144 kHz, the highest of any watch, making it three times more accurate than standard quartz.
The chronograph function is easy to read, with four subdials displaying cumulative time measurements, including hours, minutes, seconds, 1/10-seconds, 1/100-seconds, and the distinctive 1/1,000-second track with a retrograde indicator. The continuously sweeping second hand and luminous hour and minute hands ensure exceptional legibility.
Bulova's rich history as an innovator in timekeeping is evident in the Lunar Pilot Chronograph. Founded in 1875 by Joseph Bulova, the brand has stood at the forefront of horology, registering over 50 patents and revolutionizing the industry with groundbreaking innovations, from the first full lines of men's and women's wristwatches to the world's first fully electronic watch, the Accutron.
The Lunar Pilot Chronograph is a testament to Bulova's legacy of precision and innovation. This special edition timepiece not only commemorates the brand's historic contribution to space exploration but also showcases Bulova's unwavering commitment to delivering exceptional timekeeping performance. With its unique features, superior accuracy, and striking design, the Lunar Pilot Chronograph is a true horological masterpiece.
