Bulova Men's 98E003 Marine Star Diamond Accented Watch
In 1875, a young Czech immigrant named Joseph Bulova set up shop in New
York City, and a legendary American watch brand was born. Bulova was
trained as a jeweler, and his expertise carried over into his
watchmaking career, which began around 1911 with boudoir clocks and
pocket watches, and soon evolved to include what was then one of the
latest and most fashionable technological innovations: the wristwatch.


Bulova introduced its first line of wristwatches in 1919. The company
grew and prospered, and soon early radio and television ads were
declaring, "America runs on Bulova time." 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. The Accutron timing mechanism was later adapted for use by NASA
computers and a Bulova timer was even placed on the moon to control
transmissions of data. Bulova timepieces have kept official time aboard
Air Force One and have also served as official timepieces for U.S.
Olympic teams.
