Bulova Skystar World Time - (Ref. 761) Product Details
Overall Condition: Good condition overall showing wear consistent with age and use.
Let’s be straight here - we feel like Bulova doesn’t get enough credit.
Before the quartz era, Bulova had a reputation like no other. Obsessed with precision, Bulova went above and beyond; they built their own observatories to determine universal time and developed the concept of interchangeable parts to watchmaking. They were also responsible for the Accutron, the worlds first electronic movement, the same movement powered that every other device for NASA's Apollo missions outside the wrist-worn Omega Speedmasters.
Even Bulova's advertising was innovative. In 1926, they produced the first radio ad and went on to run the first television commercial in 1941. For decades, America truly ran on Bulova time.
Their spotless reputation extended to tool watches, where they produced tough-as-nails pieces for military and civilians alike, including the legendary A-11 and A-17 pilot’s watches in the 40’s and 50’s, and a line of fun and functional chronographs dive watches in the 60’s and 70’s. These models, including the Snorkel and Oceanographer, combined good looks, rugged movements, and Bulova’s cheeky 666 foot depth rating into one badass package.
What we have here is something a bit out of the ordinary for Bulova-- a lesser known model that doesn't receive nearly the attention of some of the other more famous lines in Bulova's archive. A Skystar World Time, this model Reference 761 features a classic diver profile with rotating world time bezel affixed atop the white dial display. With a very 70s appropriate cushion case and integrated lugless strap, this model is topped off with a day date functionality.
If you're a lover of all things mechanical, perhaps you're a traveler with a bent for the occasional dive, this is the perfect vintage piece for you.
