The must-have Macro Loupe for all watch lovers

I let myself be tempted by this diver bought on a well-known Chinese site. We are clearly in a "manly" style with this screwed case protection which protects the bezel. The beautiful blue dial which changes depending on the brightness is very successful. On the motorization side we find a classic NH35 automatic which makes coffee. The steel bracelet is quite qualitative except for the pressed metal buckle but at the price sold of the watch you should not be too fussy, especially since the finishes are rather good. The watch is delivered in a small black plastic box simple but solid. The tool to adjust the bracelet is delivered with it. It is a good watch for water sports (30atm) without taking the head.

Under the influence of its blue dial

This is my first real watch.
Even though digital was almost the norm at the time, my father gave me this Seiko Sports 100 for my 10th birthday.
For me, it was a "boy's" watch, despite some teasing about the size of the watch (28mm) because of the diving bezel.
I wore this watch until the end of middle school (afterward, the size was too small).
It remained inactive for over 20 years (due to a stuck caseback).
Finally, ten years ago, when I started to "get equipped," I was able to open it.
I wasn't sure it would work again. That's a misunderstanding of Seiko reliability.
1 battery, a new case gasket, and hey presto, it's back to working like it did in 1940!
So, it's mostly my wife who wears it, my son seeing it as "too feminine."
It remains a Proust madeleine.
The detail I like: the shape of the sides with the curve of the horns and the shoulder of the crown.

My first "real" watch

This Sinn U1 is the first "value" watch that I bought about ten years ago. I already had a chic sports watch but I wanted something more radical. I was seduced by the specs: 1000m waterproof (lol especially in the pool!), U-boat steel, original syringe hands. Its only enemy: the coating of modern offices which will easily scratch your beautiful micro-beaded bracelet. Prefer the tegiment. It has become my No. 1 watch for the beach. It is also the largest I own (44mm, at the time the U50 did not exist). It is an ETA model and not Sellita like today. It is not very well known but I have the impression that among collectors it has a good love rating. Quite comfortable, it nevertheless weighs its weight if you leave it with its all-steel bracelet.

My holiday watch

Bought at auction, I didn't know its whole story but I liked its dial and I found the original micro rotor. I then discovered that I had one of the first models of the cal 215. Then Genta had designed it. A bit of legend at a low price for the time. I wear it regularly and its particular little noise reminds me that I don't have a watch like the others. Attention to bracelet enthusiasts, it is not the standard size (19mm)

A watch full of surprises

As soon as I saw them in photos I knew I was going to fall for them. During a weekend in Amiens I tried the 2 models: quartz and powermatic 80. The sunray blue dial excited me more than that of the automatic and although I prefer mechanical watches I found it more in keeping with the spirit of the 80s Seastar to take it in an electric version. No regrets, this watch has become one of the ones I wear the most. Sporty chic, waterproof to 10 atm, comfortable; the dial is really superb and playing with the light is a real pleasure. Very good value for money (at the time €350). I love it so much that I bought its 35 mm twin for my wife...but that's another story

The watch of summer 2021!

Having already bought the Prx 40 quartz, I gave the 35 mm model to my wife before the summer holidays. I love its design. It is a bit too small for me, mine in 40 mm being a little bit big. I am being picky but in 38 mm it would be perfect. Otherwise the same qualities and defects as the 40 mm. Well finished, beautiful bracelet not easy to adjust because there is no fine adjustment of the butterfly buckle. My wife loves its sky blue dial. The new automatic tapestry version is also very beautiful. It is quite versatile and can be used for swimming (10 atm), but for her it is a fairly urban watch in its style.

<p dir="ltr"><strong>Bulova</strong> is an American watch brand founded in <strong>1875</strong> by Joseph Bulova, a Czech immigrant living in New York. Since its creation, the brand has stood out for its spirit of innovation, precision and commitment to quality. Over the decades, Bulova has made watchmaking history with many firsts and continues to influence the industry with iconic designs and advanced technologies.</p>
<h3 dir="ltr">Bulova's Beginnings</h3>
<p dir="ltr">In 1875, Joseph Bulova opened a small jewelry store on Maiden Lane, New York, specializing in the sale of watches and jewelry. A visionary, he quickly understood the importance of standardization and mass production to meet growing demand. In 1912, he inaugurated a factory dedicated to the manufacture of watches in Bienne, Switzerland, thus laying the foundations for high-quality watch production.</p>
<h3 dir="ltr">Pioneer of Advertising</h3>
<p dir="ltr">Bulova is also recognized for its innovative approach to marketing. In 1926, the brand broadcast the first radio advertisement, announcing: "At the tone, it's 8 PM, Bulova Watch Time". This bold initiative was followed in 1941 by the very first television commercial, broadcast before a baseball game between the Brooklyn Dodgers and the Philadelphia Phillies. These advertising strategies have largely contributed to establishing brand awareness in the United States.</p>
<h3 dir="ltr">The Accutron Era</h3>
<p dir="ltr">One of Bulova's most significant contributions to watchmaking is the launch of the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/bulova/accutron">Bulova Accutron</a> in 1960. This revolutionary model was the first electronic tuning fork watch, offering unequaled precision for the time. Thanks to its innovative mechanism, the Accutron is quickly becoming the preferred choice for applications requiring extreme accuracy, notably in NASA space programs. This technology has also been integrated into aircraft and spacecraft instrumentation, demonstrating Bulova's reliability and technological advancement.</p>
<h3 dir="ltr">Engagement in Space Exploration</h3>
<p dir="ltr">Bulova has played a notable role in the history of space exploration. During the Apollo 15 mission in 1971, astronaut David Scott wore a Bulova chronograph during his extravehicular activities on the Moon. This watch, specially designed to withstand the extreme conditions of space, is today known as the<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/bulova/lunar_pilot"> Bulova Lunar Pilot</a>. In 2016, the brand re-released this iconic model, combining the original design with modern technologies for fans of watchmaking and space history.</p>
<h3 dir="ltr">Technological Innovations</h3>
<p dir="ltr">Beyond the Accutron, Bulova has constantly innovated to improve the precision and performance of its watches. In 2010, the brand introduced the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/bulova/precisionist">Accutron Precisionist</a>, a quartz watch with a crystal vibrating at a frequency of 262 kHz, eight times more than traditional quartz movements. This innovation allows exceptional precision, with a variation of only a few seconds per year, and offers a second hand with fluid movement, imitating the sweep of high-end mechanical watches.</p>
<h3 dir="ltr">Iconic Designs</h3>
<p dir="ltr">Bulova is also recognized for its distinctive designs that combine aesthetics and functionality.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Among the emblematic models, we find the Bulova Computron, launched in 1976, characterized by its digital LED display and futuristic trapezoidal housing. This model was re-released in 2019, testament to its timeless appeal. Additionally, the collection Frank Sinatra, introduced as a tribute to the legendary singer of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/bulova/fly_me_to_the_moon">Fly Me To The Moon</a>, reflects the classic style and elegance associated with the artist, with designs named after his famous songs.</p>
<h3 dir="ltr">Acquisition by Citizen</h3>
<p dir="ltr">In 2008, Bulova was acquired by the Japanese group Citizen Watch Co., Ltd. This strategic union allows Bulova to benefit from the technological advances and resources of&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/citizen">Citizen</a>, while retaining its American identity and its heritage rich in innovations. Together, the two brands continue to develop watches that combine tradition and modernity, meeting the expectations of consumers around the world.</p>
<h3 dir="ltr">Commitment to Quality and Precision</h3>
<p dir="ltr">Since its inception, Bulova has been committed to offering high quality watches, combining precision and durability. The brand has implemented strict manufacturing and quality control standards, ensuring that each piece meets high consumer expectations. This commitment to excellence has allowed Bulova to maintain its reputation and build a loyal global customer base.</p>
<h3 dir="ltr">Conclusion</h3>
<p dir="ltr">With more than <strong>145 years of history</strong>, Bulova continues to distinguish itself with its spirit of innovation, its commitment to precision and its lasting influence in the world of watchmaking. From its humble beginnings in New York, to its pioneering role in space exploration, to its significant contributions to technological advancements in watchmaking, Bulova remains an iconic brand that combines tradition and modernity, meeting the needs of watch enthusiasts around the world.</p>
<p dir="ltr">(Updated February 2025)</p>

Bulova, a brand known mainly for its tuning fork acutron models (the brand's acronym) and the Lunar Pilote, the other moon watch. I bought this great Seville at auction during the covid. The watch was really in excellent cosmetic condition and delivered in its green case very close to the rolex. For me it is a tribute before its time. It dates from 1979 and its 36mm are perfect for my wrist. Originality, the days are in Italian. The caliber is an ETA 2834-2, the same as that mounted in the Tudor Prince of the time. The bracelet is of the jubilee type, with no adjustment other than removing links. Not very practical but quite aesthetic. On the $ side we are at less than €500 including fees, which is very correct for a beautiful vintage day & date.

<p dir="ltr">The brand <strong>Serica</strong> was created in <strong>2019</strong> by J&eacute;r&ocirc;me Burget and 3 friends in Paris, France. The name Serica comes from a lost region at the end of the Far East that the Greeks and Romans named it like this.

<p dir="ltr">The range includes watches such as the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/serica/4512">Serica 4512</a>, the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/serica/5303">Serica 5303</a> and the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/serica/8315">Serica 8315</a>. One of the particularities of this brand is that its name does not appear anywhere on the dial, in order to encourage the enthusiast to buy a design, finishes and proportions, and not just a name. In July 2023, <strong>Serica launched the Serica 5303 COSC</strong>, a chronometer version certified by the Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute.</p>
<p dir="ltr">The&nbsp;<strong><a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/serica/6190">Serica 6190</a></strong> surfing on the bases of the brand's first reference, the Serica 4512.

This Serica 6190 is powered with the Soprod M100 caliber COSC (Official Swiss Chronometer Certification) certified, like the current productions of the other 5303 and 8315 models.&nbsp;</p>
<p dir="ltr">Since November 21, 2024, Serica has been offering a very daring new collection... <strong>A dress watch off the beaten track called &ldquo;Parade&rdquo;</strong> under the reference <strong>1174</strong>.

A novelty offered for pre-order at <strong>&euro; 1,490</strong> for one delivery planned for March 2025...</p>
<h2 dir="ltr">How much does a Serica watch cost?</h2>
