Bulova Accutron Astronaut Homage

It would be nice if it was Bulova coming out with an Archive Series model for the early 1960's Accutron Astronaut. Until that day, here is a nice 1:1 homage from Forstner that is coming out soon!

In search of 11ANACB sweep second wheels (Part #6K)

Hi everyone, I'm in need of as many 11ANACB sweep second wheels (Part #6K) as I can get. Used, new, donor movements, anything would help! I have some beautiful Sea Kings that are 99% ready to go, but all require a longer pinion than the wheels I have on hand. I have a ton of new old-stock Bulova and Caravelle parts (as well as mainsprings and AS & ETA parts) that I'm happy to trade or give away to anyone in need. If anyone is ever looking for a part, just send me a message and I'll see if I have it for you. Thank you in advance!

First PVD Coated Watch by Bulova

Submitted by JimDon5822 on September 27, 2021 - 7:07pm

Here is a watch out of scope of MyBulova that I had to share from a historical perspective.   It is a 1974 Bulova Caravelle model #41893-9W.  It is a black PVD coated case with an amazing silver/blue/black "TRON" dial.   Doing research I found that the first PVD coated watch was credited to the 1972 Porsche Design experimental chronograph.    The next record of one I can find is a 1975 Heuer Monaco which is given credit as the first PVD coated production watch.  Quite rare and only 22 known to exist out of 100 or so produced.
