BRAND WATCH: Bulova describes its AW2016 collections

Bulova’s Curv has become an iconic model for the brand this year, contributing to a surge in activity in the UK.

The Curv was the centerpiece of Bulova’s appearance at September’s International Jewellery London exhibition in September, but is not the only model flying out of the doors of Bulova’s extensive network of retailers.

The brand describes its Autumn Winter 2016 collection highlights as:

CURV 98A162
Bulova introduces the world’s first curved chronograph movement. CURV brings applied design technology to a striking series of dress and sport styles. The hero of the collection features an exhibition case-back and see-through dial with titanium and steel case and buckle, and black strap in rugged rubber.

MOON WATCH   96B251
Authentically replicating the original Bulova chronograph worn by Apollo 15’s mission commander, the special edition moon watch is powered by our signature high performance quartz movement for ultimate accuracy to seconds per year. With two interchangeable straps—a black leather and a black nylon with nubuck leather patch commemorating the mission date. A version with a stainless steel link bracelet will follow.

PRECISIONIST   96B270
Particularly refined, with precision timing to 1/1000th of a second and a continuous-sweep second hand, this chronograph with stainless steel case and bracelet, dark grey bezel with tachymeter and red-accented black dial is powered by Bulova’s exclusive three-prong quartz crystal Precisionist movement. With a 262 kHz vibrational frequency that’s eight times greater than standard watches, it is the definition of ultimate timekeeping.

AUTOMATIC  98A165
This self-winding automatic timepiece with open aperture dial and exhibition case-back showcases meticulous craftsmanship. Brown ionic plated stainless steel case, rose-gold finish, brown skeleton dial, alligator grain brown leather strap and water resistant to 100 meters.

LADIES’ DIAMONDS MOON-PHASE WATCH
This watch makes a dazzling statement with 34 diamonds individually hand set on case frame and on blue sandstone dial with moon phase movement, day/date feature, sapphire glass and stainless steel bracelet; water resistance to 30 meters.

LADIES’ DIAMONDS  98R230
Exquisite craftsmanship in a new diamond-edged contoured case that fits the wrist’s natural curve. With sapphire glass, and 24 diamonds individually hand set on two-tone rose gold slim-line case and brown dial, it’s an undeniably brilliant look.
