Bulovas are like Seikos. You don't realize you've got more than one until someone asks...

you gotta admit... the depth gauge on the diver is cool.

I'd like to have a few more Bulovas... a Space View, a "Stars and Stripes"... but these are the only ones I'd trade an appendage for:

I have a real soft spot for Bulovas, however they are the Rodney Dangerfields of watch collecting...

Hahaha... I had to google Rodney Dangerfields, but I understand what you mean 😁

Hi all!
I have a weak spot for vintage "hummers", and have Longines, Certina, IWC, Omega and a few others in my collection.
When talking about these you have to mention Bulova including the history behind these tuning fork movements. Its all fascinating to me 😀
I got my first Bulova a couple of months and have fallen in love with it since.
This is a all original Railroad Approved from 1966 with the 214 movement.

Are there anyone else who want to share their early Bulova`s? 😀

beautiful

1969 World Timer. This runs like a beast and has so much charm.

Oh boy there's some Bulova love for sure... especially as I'm preparing an exhibition to commemorate 60 years X-15 rocket plane

Bought my first vintage Bulova today. The whale on the dial tells me this is a Sea King, but I haven't really seen another one like it. I'd appreciate it if someone more knowledgable on these could share more on this one.

Accutron Astronaut wristwatch as issued to USAF & NASA test pilots at Edwards Air Force Base in Southern California.
The scale model is a vintage Topping X-15 for North American Aviation...

The correct Accutron Astronaut will probably get a boost (if it already hasn't) with the upcoming 60th anniversary of the X-15 program...
Correct = thin hands on a black dial without the word "Bulova"
