Back in the days, the name Bulova was a reminisce of a great American watch company that made true high quality watches with great innovation. Founded in 1875 by Joseph Bulova, the company had a deep historical presence that made huge contributions to the watch world industry for over a century. In fact, at some point in the mid 1900s, Bulova became one of the largest watch companies in the world selling over millions of watches.
Although the brand doesn’t have the same presence as it did back in the days, with modern Bulova watches having questionable qualities in some of their line-up, the watch we have here which is a Bulova Automatic from the 1970s certainly came from an era during Bulova’s heyday where the company were pushing out true quality craftmanship out of their factory. Paired with a beautiful champaign dial and a stainless steel bracelet, we certainly think that the watch looks very elegant as it sits and would pair well in any occasion, whether it’s a formal dress party or a casual day at the office.

Condition report:
This watch is in overall great condition, showing some minor wear on the original champaign dial, the case being lightly polished in the past but is still retaining sharp edges. The crown is signed with the Bulova logo, and the watch is wearing the original bracelet from factory with a signed logo clasp. The movement has been calibrated and is now keeping good time.
