Click to jump to a specific category:
Powered by Bulova’s Precisionist movement, the brand’s Jet Star features the brand’s revolutionary 8-jewel quartz mechanism. It vibrates at a remarkable 262kHz (accurate to 5 seconds per month with increased resistance to temperature changes, per the brand) and is topped off with a sweeping seconds hand.
Not to mention, this silver and burgundy hybrid is extremely sharp and worth the splurge.
For the man who loves black and gold, the Bulova Oceanographer GMT is our top pick that will last for decades of well-adored wear. Its rose gold-tone married with its stainless-steel case is the real deal, featureing a curved silhouette, a box sapphire crystal, a two-tone “root beer” bidirectional rotating 24-hour bezel and a screw-down crown providing 200m of water resistance.
Watch buffs, you’ll appreciate how it’s powered by a self-winding GMT movement, accentuated with 24-jewels and a power reserve of 42 hours.
Navy and gold never looked so good. The Bulova Marine Star is one of our top recommendations, complete with a handsome face and subtle red touches that add some vibrancy and traditionalism to the accessory.
Additionally, its blue dial with flat mineral crystal is one to add to your cart, as it complements its blue textured silicone strap with a contrasting red underside. Oh, and it’s water-resistant up to 200 meters — a true diver’s watch.
The retro-classic Bulova Sutton is one to add to your watch collection (or to someone else’s) this holiday season. Namely, it honors a sophisticated design with a full exhibition dial and case-back. Not to mention, its gold-tone stainless steel screw-back case, skeletonized silver and white three-hand dial are sleek and pair well with any outfit.
The style also boasts self-winding 21-jewel movement, domed mineral crystal and the tried-and-true brown leather strap with push-button buckle. More, it’s water resistant up to 30 meters.
Accentuate your wrist with an all-black watch from Bulova — the pick for the modernist who appreciates a sleek look. Its black IP stainless steel comes with three diamonds on black dial, a three-hand date feature a metalized edge-to-edge curved crystal and screw-back case.
Its precise quartz crystal regulates the time achieving accuracy to 15 seconds a month.
Slim gold watches for women are making a comeback, and the Bulova Quadra is one of our favorites on this list. It replicates the tank style characteristic of much more expensive designer options — for a fraction of the price — and its cross-studded diamonds are a nice touch.
Moreover, its gold tone stainless steel case (with edge to edge faceted metalizing mineral crystal and a gold tone crown) make the style that much nicer. It also features a champagne dial with three diamonds set atop the dial, allowing the yellow gold and diamond lover to absolutely swoon.
Beautiful and accentuating any outfit is the Bulova Rubaiyat. Fifty diamonds are individually hand set on its case parenthesis and textured silver-white dial, and its double curved sapphire crystal and rose gold-tone stainless steel bracelet with double-press deployment closure make it an iconic option.
Additionally, it’s water resistant up to 30 meters and honors that bracelet watch style that we all know and love.
Shop the Bulova Phantom — one of our favorite picks that will be worn well by the woman who loves wearing neutrals, as the brown pairs well with shades of almond, espresso and even black.
Specifically, this watch style is prized for its rose gold-tone stainless steel case, bracelet and lustrous chocolate mother-of-pearl dial embellished with 174 brilliant crystals. It also displays a three-hand sub sweep quartz movement and flat mineral crystal. Oh, and it’s also water resistant up to 30 meters.
The Bulova Gemini is a classy pick from the brand, with its navy, silver and yellow gold-speckled charm. Its beveled hands and three hand-set are complemented by .8mm diamonds, allowing the slim, dainty style to pair well with other tennis-style bracelets and bangles.
On the same token, its striking aesthetic makes it perfect to transition from day to night — from your corporate job to your after-work cocktail hour.
Can’t choose between sleek white and yellow gold? The Bulova Millennia is one that we have on our wishlist, featuring a classic round face and linked band that we can’t help but love.
Its ceramic case and bracelet with gold-tone stainless steel accents are highlighted with four diamonds set on the gold-tone metalized crystal — all surrounding a white mother-of-pearl dial. It’s elegant, stylish and also water resistant for up to 30 meters.
