Jet Star
Product Description
Straight from the 1970s comes the Bulova 1973 Jet Star, an iconic model from the brands impressive history, now equipped with an equally impressive movement. Borrowing from its historic forebear, the gold-tone stainless steel case features a striking angular design with broad facets and a domed sapphire crystal. The warmth of the butterscotch sunburst dial is accented by a rich brown chapter ring, applied brown and gold-tone hour markers, and gold tone hands. Luminescent plots at each hour and fill in the hands allow for exceptional legibility in every environment, while a date display sits perfectly at 3 o’clock. A red seconds hand brings a pop of color and sweeps smoothly around the dial thanks to Bulova’s Precisionist movement, a revolutionary 8-jewel quartz mechanism vibrating at a remarkable 262kHz and accurate to 5 seconds per month with increased resistance to temperature changes. The Bulova 1973 ‘F’ Jet Star is paired perfectly with a brown leather strap with latched spring bars for easy release.

What!!
The NM50 movement is incredible. This 3 hand movement at 262khz is just not fair to some mechanical watches as the second hand mesmerizingly sweeps around dial. This is truly precision movement with only 8 jewels and most of my watches are mechanical and either have Solita, ETA and Miyota movement but this is a true thing of beauty to watch and the butter scotch dial is nutts. Bulova, you all did that and this is becoming one of my favorite watches. Great work!!
Family
Got a beautiful Jet Star for my nephew he now wears it all over the place. It fits alot of the styles he wears.
Dig the watch man..
Great watch, haven't been this stoked to wear a new watch in a long time.
Great color!
Love the color of the dial and strap combination. It fits really well and feels like you’re wearing something very unique.
