Bulova Men’s 98B52 Calendar Bracelet Watch Review

Elegant, luxurious, yet never too much, the shock-resistant and anti-magnetic Men’s Bracelet Calendar Watch from Bulova is part of the distinguished Infinity collection. A gold-tone bezel with eight etched Roman numeral adds warmth and depth, while a sleek white dial gets its uptown look from single and double gold-tone bar markers, black indices, and matchstick-thin gold-tone hands. A two-tone bracelet lends polish, while water resistance to 99 feet ensures extra protection from the elements. There’s also a date display at three o’clock to help keep your day on-track, and a scratch-resistant crystal for extra protection.

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.

Today, Bulova maintains its tradition of excellence in technology and design, offering a diverse collection of beautiful precision timepieces for every occasion.
