Bulova Men’s 98C60 Two-Tone Bracelet Watch Review

Up-to-the-minute style and excellent legibility make this midsized two-tone watch from Bulova a perfect accessory for everyday wear. The round brushed steel case highlights a patterned champagne dial with luminous goldtone hands and markers, a luminous seconds hand, and prominent day and date display windows. The dial is capped with a scratch-resistant mineral crystal and framed by a polished goldtone bezel. A fluted goldtone crown adds a touch of distinction. The case tapers elegantly to join a handsome brushed steel bracelet with polished goldtone accents. The bracelet is finished with a foldover clasp and safety. This Bulova watch offers precise Japanese quartz movement and is rated water resistant to 30 meters.

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.
