Everyone Should Certainly Realize, A History Of The US Is A History Of Bulova Womens Watches

Who has not heard of Bulova watches? Adorning the wrists of men and women around the world, the Bulova brand is well recognized and very well respected. Over the years it has developed several different styles, each with its own brand name and own personality.

Over the course of the next 130 years, the Bulova Brand developed into one of the world's leading developers of timekeeping instruments. These included delicate boudoir clocks and simple pocket watches to diamond encrusted watch pins for women. In 1919, when the US entered World War I, the watch company began making simple yet sturdy wristwatches for our soldiers. Until this time, wristwatches were for the elite.

In 1920, the company built an observatory atop a skyscraper in the middle of New York City. This is the first observatory to be built on top of a skyscraper. It is managed by a mathematician, whose readings are instantaneously recorded electronically on a chronograph, guiding the watchmakers in the Setting and Timing unit. This was an important feat as it demonstrated Bulova's dedication to accuracy and exacting measurements for their timekeeping pieces.

By the end of the First World War, Joseph Bulova and his Bulova Watch Company have produced thousands of watches worn by our soldiers on the battlefields of Europe. He presented a special commemorative watch to Charles Lindbergh when he completed his solo transatlantic flight in 1926. And as the twenties roared, the company presented the first National Radio Advertisement in 1926 at a Dodgers vs. Phillies baseball game.

Other firsts include the introduction of the first clock radio in 1928. In 1929 they re-engineered how automobile clocks were made and installed. In 1924, Bulova was the first watch company to introduce a line of women's watches, including diamond-encrusted styles. By now, more Americans were wearing Bulova watches than any other watch brand.

In 1926, Arde Bulova, the son of the founder and now President of the company, offered a prize to the first pilot to fly a transatlantic flight solo. In 1927 Charles Lindbergh was presented with a special commemorative watch. Five thousand copies of the watches for men named the "Lone Eagle" were sold in three days after Lindbergh’s' famous flight.

The Bulova Watch Company has worked closely with the US Government to produce timekeeping and precision instruments for the Army at cost, making no profit during World War II. A resolution was passed by the President, Arde Bulova, son of Joseph Bulova, in 1941, to sell products for national defense at actual cost. They designed and manufactured watches for the military, as well as critical torpedo mechanisms and fuses.

At the end of the war, the company opened the Joseph Bulova School of Watch Making in New York. Here disabled veterans would learn the skills of watch making. The building was specially designed to accommodate wheelchairs and those with disabilities, including automatic doors and extra wide aisles. After graduating from the school, employment was assured with over 1,500 positions pledged by American jewelers.

How many watch brands have visited the moon? Bulova's first electronic timekeeping mechanism based on tuning forks, was an integral part of the U. S. Space program in the later years of the 1950's until the first moon walk of 1969. NASA was unsure of how traditional mechanical watch movements would work in low to zero gravity environments, so they found an alternate in the Bulova Accutron. All instrument panel clocks and time-keeping mechanisms in NASA spacecraft, including the Moon Rover, were provided by Bulova.

The history of Bulova womens watches cannot be separated from the history of the United States. Rising to meet the demands of the military and space, while meeting the cultural needs of the population, the Bulova Watch Company is an outstanding representative of American craftsmanship and technology.
