Bulova has been a driving force in American watchmaking since 1875, blending heritage craftsmanship with relentless innovation. Known for pushing boundaries, Bulova pioneered the first fully electronic watch and achieved lunar glory when one of its timepieces was worn on the moon.
Today, the brand offers countless precision quartz movements paired with bold, modern designs, that deliver both accuracy and style.
These are six of our favorite offerings in the brand’s 2024 collection.
Eye-Catching Precision Sport Watches
Many sports watch collections are built around adventurous pursuits like racing, diving, and flying. Bulova’s watches stand out from the crowd for several reasons, though. First and foremost, the watchmaker’s timepieces actually have a historical precedent for tackling the most extreme adventure humanity’s ever embarked on, i.e., a mission to the moon.
Bulova’s design team also clearly recognizes that a modern sports watch should be fun without violating the traditional aesthetics that make them appealing to wear everywhere. Finally, Bulova’s decades-long expertise with Quartz movement technology gives it a clear leg up in offering ultra-precise timepieces at prices nearly any watch fan can access.

Whether you’re looking for color, a particular complication, a striking case design or more modern takes on elegant silhouettes, there’s a Bulova to match nearly any style and budget.
