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.A substantial timepiece with a nautical feel, the Bulova Men's Marine Star Watch features a black and white dial with subdued red embellishment. A white dial boasts a sunburst pattern radiating from the bottom register. The watch face's outer section shows even-numbered Arabic numerals and odd-numbered indices, creating a graphic appeal. The chronograph functions include an outer ring with minute markers, date at the six o'clock, and three subdials for 60 second, 60 minute, and 24-hour cycles. The black, fixed bezel with four silver-toned screws adds character. The stainless steel case and link band with safety fold-over clasp evoke durability. This watch relies on quality Japanese Quartz movement and a mineral crystal window protecting the dial. Water resistant to 330 feet (100 meters), the Men's Marine Star Watch from Bulova takes you over land and into the sea with confidence and style.In 1875, a young Czech immigrant named Joseph Bulova set up shop in New York City, and a legendary American watch brand was born.
