路路Home For Wayward WatchesBulova (and Caravelle) make nice vintage divers. The Snorkel 666/ft aka "Devil Diver" is a nice piece and still affordable.
Seems this model Bulova diver bears some styling resemblance to the Zodiac Sea Wolf.
Only a single Bulova has come to roost here, an inexpensive impulse buy from a watchmaker's showcase years ago.

路Is the modern Bulova Moonwatch likely to be a collectors' piece down the line? Anyone know where it's made, especially the movement?

路I've long eyed off the Accutrons - particularly a Spaceview, but then this popped up on a Facebook forum and I had to have it.

路Here's a popular Deep Sea Chronograph. Love the vibrant red on the bezel and glossy dial. Cool skin diver case as well.

路I've a liking for the brand as I bought one - from my own pocket - as my first 'quality' watch in 1976:
But the 't.v.' screen Bulova I'd now like is this Accutron Calendar CK:
The model figures in this period ad:
Now that's real 70s style!

路I like this Aerojet manual wind for it's elegant simplicity; there's a lot of beautiful Swiss work in this piece and it's very well put together - a nice dress watch.
just love that Aerojet.

路Great collection. Also have the "other Moonwatch" from Bulova.
Here's mine on the new Haveston "Redstone" strap, with the bead blasted hardware to match the case:

路Only Bulovas in the family at the moment are a 1963 ladies self winding I found on ebay for ten bucks and fixed up as a gift for my sis, and an ancient ladies rolled gold pre WW2 that belonged to my Mom. It still worked last time I saw it but I've forgotten where I stashed the old jewelry boxes.
The watch i got for sis ran very fast at first but after keeping it running for a few weeks it now keeps perfect time. It showed no signs of wear other than a scuffed crystal that polished out easily in a few minutes. I figure the crystal got scuffed shortly after the watch was bought and it ended up being put away in a drawer and never used. So thats basically a new condition Bulova for ten bucks, though the gold expansion band was too small for her wrist so I had to spend another 12 bucks for a calfskin size L with gold buckle.
Quite a few 23 jewel mens watches have shown up on ebay recently and a number of Sea Kings.
Been meaning to pick one up one day.

路Here's mine from the 30's. Inherited it from my grandparent.
Looks big but it's on my 11 year old daughters wrist 馃榾
Magnificent!
Been eyeing the few that show up on ebay. just missed a fine one in its original bakelite box and gold band that looked hardly worn. The listing said 50's but it looked much earlier.
Mom's ladies model is in its bakelite decorative case. Not sure but i think its pre WW2.
