Jet Star
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 stainless steel case features a striking angular design with broad facets and a domed sapphire crystal. The magnificently claret sunburst dial is accented by a black chapter ring, applied black and red hour markers, and matching silver tone and red 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. The new Jet Star is powered by Bulova’s Precisionist movement, a revolutionary 8-jewel quartz mechanism vibrating at a remarkable 262kHz, accurate to 5 seconds per month with increased resistance to temperature changes, and with a sweeping seconds hand. Complementing the stainless steel case is a matching bracelet with a deployant clasp closure and latched spring bars for easy release. Strut your stuff in legendary style with the high-flying Bulova 1973 Jet Star, a legendary design recreated for the modern connoisseur.

Excellent service; Be careful of sizing
Watch arrived in a few days after placing order. Bulova resized it before shipping which is nice. Smallest sizing available was 6 1/2 when placing order but got word that 6 3/4 is the smallest due to design of this model. Excellent customer service and communication from Bulova.

Gorgeous Watch with high quality bracelet
I bought this for my husband's 50th birthday. He is an avid watch collector and just loves this new piece. The color is so rich and has hint of copper when the light hits it just right. The style of the bracelet is unique and heavy...very well made. We are both very happy with this purchase.
