Product Description
Bulova made space history on August 2, 1971--during the Apollo 15 mission, a moon pilot chronograph, customized for lunar conditions by Bulova engineers, was worn on the moon. Now Bulova makes history again with the special edition Lunar Pilot Chronograph, updated with our exclusive high performance quartz movement with a frequency of 262 kHz for unparalleled accuracy, continuing a history of precision timing. Features include super-luminous hands and markers, anti-reflective sapphire glass, tachymeter and calendar all housed in a sandblasted solid 316L surgical-grade stainless steel case in silver-tone with black dial. Two interchangeable straps are included -- one a textured black leather; the other, a black nylon with a nubuck leather patch that commemorates the date of mission (DOM) as 08021971. Gift-box presentation includes a Certificate of Authenticity.

Reviews
Cool as a lunar lander
Heavyweight watch, solid construction, excellent design with an unparalleled history.
The only real moon watch
While researching another "moon" watch, I came across the history of this watch. Once I read the history and some reviews, I was sold. I love it and is my go to work watch.
The one watch
Fantastic watch! The one watch you’ll ever need. I chose the modern version for convenience of the date window and the ease of a quartz movement. You can live with it every day. I’m a pilot and astronaut selectee and have loved the Moon Watches. This model that Dave Scott reverted to when his Omega failed is superb and reliable. Having the Apollo 15 inscription on the watch case adds to the heritage of the watch. It’s my every day watch. It adds class to a suit and steps up your game when you’re casual. Perfect.
