Bulova Lunar Pilot Chronograph Archive Series with Black Nato Strap
Lunar Pilot Chronograph
Sometimes known as “the other moon watch”, the original Bulova Lunar Pilot Chronograph is the watch worn to the moon by Astronaut David Scott. Scott wore the watch on the Apollo 15 mission in 1971. For a fascinating, brilliantly researched article on the original watch, read more here on Worn & Wound.
Bulova’s modern interpretation of the watch has a high-performance quartz movement. With a frequency of 262 kHz, it operates at a higher frequency than most quartz or mechanical movements. Consequently, it has increased precision (8 times more accurate than a standard quartz).
Case, Dial, NATO Strap
Firstly, with a 45mm stainless steel case, the Bulova Lunar Pilot Chronograph is a sizeable watch. However, with gently curving case contouring, it is comfortable to wear. Secondly, the chronograph pushers follow the shape of the case. This is true to the original watch and is a nice detail. Additionally, the black dial is multi-level which adds depth. Also, a tachymetre scale surrounds the outside edge. In keeping with the original, the Bulova logo is the version from the 70’s. Finally, a black polyester NATO strap secures the watch to the wrist.
Bulova and Apollo 15
Founded in 1875 by Joseph Bulova, this famous American brand has a long history of innovation. They collaborated with NASA on 46 space missions. Additionally, a Bulova timer was even placed on the sea of tranquility during the first moon walk. The Bulova Lunar Pilot Chronograph is a functional, well constructed chronograph with fascinating history attached. Covered by a three year warranty, peace of mind is guaranteed.
