Bulova Accutron Day/Date Gold Oxidized Case

Bulova was founded in 1875 by Joseph Bulova in New York City, starting as a small jewelry store. The brand quickly became known for its high standards in design and engineering, eventually expanding into timepieces by 1911. Bulova made history with the development of the first fully electronic watch, the Accutron, in 1960, which used a tuning fork mechanism for unparalleled accuracy. This innovation not only revolutionized the watch industry but also played a key role in NASA's space missions, including the first moonwalk in 1969. Bulova's impact on watchmaking extends beyond technology; it was also a pioneer in advertising, airing the world’s first radio commercial in 1926. The brand's commitment to blending traditional craftsmanship with cutting-edge technology is evident in its diverse range of designs, appealing to both classic and modern tastes. Bulova's long-standing relationship with the American military further solidified its reputation for reliability during World War II. Bulova stands out for its innovative spirit and its ability to consistently push the boundaries of timekeeping. Its legacy as a symbol of American ingenuity and leadership in horology makes it a cherished name among collectors and enthusiasts alike.
