Bulova is a luxury watchmaker that was founded way back in 1875. They were an American brand until 2008, when they were bought by the Japanese company Citizen.
The fact that their parent company is now Citizen is pretty appropriate. Bulova watches sit in about the same price range as Citizen watches, and they’re both really great options for entry level luxury watches. That is, they’re extremely well made, but affordable enough to be accessible for the curious.
Probably the most famous Bulova moment was in 1926, when the brand produced the first radio advertisement in human history. The ad said “At the tone, it’s eight o’clock, Bulova Watch Time.” The ad was heard by millions of Americans, which is pretty good for their first try.
A year later, Bulova gifted a watch and a $1000 check to Charles Lindbergh for crossing the Atlantic without stopping.
In 1941, Bulova made history again by producing the first ever television advertisement, an achievement for which I’m sure we’re all very grateful to them. The commercial was just a modified test card that looked like a clock with the hands showing the current time. The Bulova logo was in the bottom right corner with the phrase “Bulova Time.” The commercial was an entire minute long and it was just that image with the moving hands. Still, millions of people sat there and watched it for the entire 60 seconds. The “Skip Ad” button wasn’t invented yet.
Anyways, none of that is why we love Bulova. We love them because they make excellent watches. Even though they’re affordable, the watchmaker never cuts any corners in production or quality assurance.
To celebrate Bulova, we thought we’d show off some of the amazing pieces we have in stock right now.
