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.

Bulova timepieces have kept official time aboard Air Force One and have also served as official timepieces for U.S. Olympic teams.

I purchased this watch in February after seeing it in a magazine. Nice watch, but heavy.
in February after seeing it in a magazine. Nice watch, but heavy. If you are a small woman I don't recommend this watch though. Band is huge, had to get several links taken out of band before I could wear it.
Very pretty, love the open heart on the face that lets you see the inner workings of the watch. Like the look of the mother of pearl face and diamond accents. Have received several compliments on it.
