Stainless-steel material About this item: Precisionist quartz movement, Stainless steel case and bracelet, Black dial, Mineral domed crystal, Water-resistant to 200 M (660 feet). 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. From the Precisionist Collection, this advanced chronograph features Bulova's proprietary Precisionist quartz accuracy, offering 1/1,000-second precision over a twelve-hour time frame, with global accuracy to within ten seconds a year. The watch is crafted in stainless steel with black ion-plated accents, a domed crystal, rotating ratchet bezel, black sunray dial, and chronograph measurement of hours, minutes, seconds, 1/10-seconds, 1/100-seconds and 1/1,000-seconds. It also boasts a red continuously sweeping second hand, luminous hour and minute hands, luminous markers, a tachymeter, calendar, screw-back case, screw-down crown, double-press fold-over clasp with safety lock, and water resistance to 200 meters.
