Key Advantages of the Bulova Automatic Watch 97A182, Gold

 

1. Precision 21-Jewel Automatic Movement with 42-Hour Power Reserve

At the core of the Bulova Automatic Watch 97A182, Gold lies the reliable 82S0 automatic caliber, a 21-jewel movement engineered for accuracy and longevity. This self-winding mechanism harnesses kinetic energy from daily wrist movement, storing it in a mainspring that delivers a substantial 42-hour power reserve when fully wound. The movement's intricate components—including the balance wheel, escape wheel, and mainspring barrel—are visible through both the dial aperture and the transparent exhibition case back, offering a mesmerizing view of traditional mechanical engineering in action.

 

• Movement Type: Automatic (self-winding) 21-jewel 82S0 caliber.

2. Radiant Sunburst Champagne Dial with Luminous Hands

The champagne dial of the Bulova Automatic Watch 97A182, Gold is finished with a radiant sunburst pattern that creates a dynamic interplay of light, shifting from warm golden hues to soft silver tones as the angle changes. This distinctive dial texture adds depth and character, setting it apart from flat, monochromatic alternatives. The applied gold-tone hour markers are complemented by luminous hands coated with a high-grade luminescent material, ensuring clear readability in dim conditions without compromising the dial's elegant daytime appearance.

Unlike traditional pin buckles that may loosen over time, the deployant clasp maintains a consistent fit and distributes pressure evenly across the wrist.
