In 1875, Joseph Bulova, a 23-year-old immigrant, set up shop in New York City, and a legendary American watch brand was born. Since then, Bulova has stood proudly in the vanguard of timekeeping innovation, committed to the legacy of creativity and excellence established by its founder.
Featuring the Precisionist, the world's most advanced chronograph with a continuously sweeping second hand, the Precisionist collection masterfully combines unparalleled accuracy to seconds per year, continuous-sweep second hand, and intricate details for timeless style. Powered by Bulova's proprietary three-prong quartz crystal Precisionist movement with a 262kHz vibrational frequency - eight times greater than standard quartz watches - for unparalleled accuracy.
The watch is crafted in stainless steel with a multiple-layer swirl-pattern charcoal grey dial, a silver continuously sweeping second hand, luminous hour and minute hands, faceted stick markers with luminous squares, a calendar, and a black leather strap. It is water-resistant to 30 meters.
Bulova has been a pioneering force in the industry, transforming how watches were worn and how time was perceived. The company has registered over 50 patents, building a record of creativity that includes the first full lines of men's (1919) and ladies' (1924) wristwatches, the first clock/radio (1928), and the first electric clock (1931). To ensure the utmost in precision, in 1920, Bulova even established its own observatory, located atop its New York skyscraper.
After World War II, determined "to serve those who served us," Bulova established The Bulova School of Watchmaking, using new and unique methods to train disabled veterans for positions in the watch and jewelry industry. Then, in 1960, Bulova changed timekeeping forever with the revolutionary Accutron, the world's first fully electronic watch. An integral component of U.S. space technology, Accutron timing was used on 46 NASA missions, including Apollo XI, the first lunar landing (1969).
Today, as one of the world's most recognized brands, Bulova has expanded across the globe, with four separate watch brands: Bulova, Bulova AccuSwiss, Bulova Accutron II, and Caravelle New York, as well as the award-winning Bulova Clocks. The signature Bulova brand provides an extensive selection of watches for every occasion, crafted of the finest materials, including 315L surgical grade stainless steel, diamonds, mother-of-pearl, carbon fiber, top-quality leather, and Bulova's proprietary Duramic nylon/ceramic composite, and powered by Precisionist-class quartz, automatic, and quartz movements.
An industry leader in diamond watch styling, with the new Diamond Gallery offering exquisite designs in stainless steel with sapphire crystals, Bulova is also known for Precisionist, featuring Bulova's proprietary Precisionist-class quartz torsional resonator movement for accuracy to within seconds per year, the Marine Star collection, combining high-performance sports timekeeping with superior durability and water resistance to a minimum of 100 meters, and a comprehensive selection of classic styles, each with a three-year limited warranty.
