| Home » Bulova #96R19 Womens Diamond Accented Chronograph Watch | | | | | | | Product Promotions: | | | | | Description: | | About Bulova: The beginnings of the Bulova Watch Corporation can be traced to a small jewelry store opened on Maiden Lane in New York City in 1875 by Joseph Bulova, a 23-year-old immigrant from Bohemia. In 1911, Bulova began manufacturing boudoir and desk clocks, along with fine pocket watches, which he made and sold in unprecedented numbers. During World War I, wristwatches were issued in the military for their greater convenience. Returning veterans brought them home, and a new fashion was created. In the 1950s, Bulova developed the Accutron, the first electronic watch, which was accurate to keeping time to within two seconds a day. During the 1960s, NASA asked the company to bring its timing expertise to computers for the Space Program. A Bulova timer was placed on the moon's Sea of Tranquility to control the transmissions of vital data through the years. | | | Features: | |

AMAZ-ZZIIINNNG!Nov 29, 2005
By joyagal This watch really truly is. I also made the unfortunate mistake of buying this watch at an after-Thanksgiving day department store promo, with the added benefit of long lines and $100 more to the price. Save some money and get this beautiful sparkly here... notice the way it catches the light when you're driving. Shine and beauty, and you would not believe how many compliments!!!

Great watch Great valueAug 05, 2006

This is a great watch for the money. I recently saw it in a department store selling for $200 more. Keep in mind that although it is a ladies watch, it is oversized. GREAT deal!! Looks like more than what it even retails for.

SO Perfect for any size wristMay 25, 2006
By N. A. Holliday I got this watch for Mother's Day, with my initials engraved into the back of the dial -- I was so pleased. It's beautiful, the diamonds are just enough, the size is right between too small and too big making it the PERFECT size.
I laughed when I went to a local jewlery store and the woman asked if I had bought it there. She further stated it was on "sale" for $469.00, 30.00 off the original price. I smiled and told her we hadn't even paid $270.00, we saved over 200.00 off their sale price. If you want this watch BUY it, you will not find it any lower the $374.00 a sale price offered by a major department store.

You won't regret this purchase!Feb 03, 2006
By - Kasia S. I got this from my boyfriend, and I must say that it's the most beautiful watch I have ever owned. I needed one for a very long time now, and I have always loved metal watches, and when this caught my eye, I just had to have it. Ive spent months looking at watches both online and in stores and this is the finest looking one I found! I wasn't even looking at prices, and was pleasantly surprised how affordable this one is.
He purchased it from Amazon and it came in a few days, and even though I haven't seen it in person before I was totally in love. The face is smooth, buttery mother of pearl; it has 3 chronographs and 16 small diamonds circling the face. The links look like liquid silver, with matt face on the inside, and it feel incredibly comfortable on the hand. I wear it every day, and I love how it sparkles in the sun, without being flashy or tacky.
If you want a good quality watch, Bulova is an excellent brand, that has stood the test of time. It will be a compliment to any outfit and great from the most festive occasion to grocery shopping on a rainy tuesday.

Suprisingly well pleasedApr 23, 2006
By Jackie After diligently search the 'net for several weeks for a reasonably priced ladies diamond chronograph, I settled on this Bulova model. Although the diamond presence is pretty miniscule, the method used to set the stones, with little silver points between them, enhances the look and they appear to be larger and very sparkly. The face is larger than average but still very feminine, and my fading eyes can easily read the date. I had misgivings about this watch, but am very pleased. It's a keeper!
