    All my Bul-love-a love is in Wrist Alarm form.
    I recently sold the silver wrist alarm (here on OF), but I still have the blue dial. It also has its original box (plastic) and hangtags.

    Looks like the wristwatch I mentioned in the Hamilton topic, is now identified as a Bulova 3818... worn by NASA astronauts & testpilots

    I've seen one of two example for sale, but admittedly not very often. Best of luck with the search. :)

    There are two on eBay in the $600+ range, which is more than I think they are worth.

    I've been watching them, but agree that they seem a little overvalued. What a nice dial design, though!

    Of course, like anything, condition and accessories matter. Mine has its original bracelet, boxes and instructions. Those two on strap don't look as slick :)

    Of course, exceptionally nice examples with original box and papers will warrant a higher price. An object is worth what someone is willing to paper for, and I could be wrong. I really like the finishing on the case.

    35 years ago... Toys-in-space, yes the HotWheels loop and not the Bulova Accutron Spaceview at the wrist of astronaut Jeffrey Hoffman onboard space shuttle orbiter "Discovery" in April 1985...
    1960-2020 = 50 years Accutron and MoonwatchUniverse will be bringing some lesser known photographs

    May I sully this vintage thread with a vintage-inspired Bulova reissue?
