Product Details

Classically styled, this brilliantly polished gold-tone Bulova stainless steel men's watch is a great match for your professional couture during the work week. But it's also ready to play on the weekends, thanks to a powerfully accurate chronograph timer and water resistance to 50 meters (165 feet). This large-sized watch offers a perfectly circular bezel with rounded, slightly raised sides. It frames a white face with three chronograph subdials (chrono minutes, seconds, and 24-hour), full Arabic numeral display in black, luminous gold baton hands (with seconds hand), small minute indexes, and date window between 4 and 5 o'clock. It's completed by a highly polished gold-plated stainless steel bracelet band with small rounded links.

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.
