Lunar Pilot
Archive Series
Product Description
On August 2, 1971, a Bulova chronograph was worn on the moon, engineered for the demands of the lunar environment. Now, Bulova returns to the design and updates it with an exclusive high precision quartz movement, continuing its legacy of precision timing with the men’s Bulova Lunar Pilot chronograph from the Archive Series. The Lunar Pilot chronograph features the same 43.5mm silver-tone stainless steel case as the original Bulova chronograph. Slim, blue chronograph pushers and a crown featuring the Bulova tuning fork logo are positioned at 3 o’clock. Under the flat sapphire crystal, the six-hand chronograph dial is rendered in a blue-and-silver panda design, with a blue tachymeter ring and retro Bulova name. The slim hands and applied markers offer exceptional legibility and are applied with super luminova for low-light display. The recessed, circular grooved sub-dials include a 1/20 chronograph seconds counter at 3 o’clock, running seconds p hand at 6 o’clock, and 60-minute chronograph counter at 9 o’clock. The Lunar Pilot is powered by Bulova’s proprietary high precision quartz movement, resonating at a frequency of 262khz for unparalleled accuracy and allowing a sweeping chronograph hand and running seconds hand. The watch is paired with a matching 3-link silver-tone stainless steel bracelet with a push-button deployant clasp and a fitted leather strap, both of which feature an easy release system for quick changes. A modern interpretation of a historic timepiece, the Bulova Lunar Pilot is the ideal watch for today’s explorer.

Received today ::: A gorgeous watch
Pondered making purchase but overcame my own resistance and ordered it sized to my wrist. It is SPECTACULAR. I’m a big guy so I have no issue that it’s “too big” as some say. It’s not. As they sized it for me, the removed links were not included so I called customer service and they’re sending links to me, no prob. I absolutely love the heft of it on my wrist & while I bought it for “me,” I know it’ll draw positive attention and will exert a certain status where a lessor watch simply cannot. If you’re on the fence, you deserve to have it man.
A beautiful, precise, wearable chronograph
A beautiful watch, just the right size (43,5 mm), even if I have a small wrist. It looks good on the wrist, is easy to read and the Luminova is great. Operation of the chronograph is smooth. Of course, accuracy is outstanding with the NP 20 movement. No date, which is not a big problem but would have been nice to have. Same goes for water resistance (100 m would have allowed swimming). But, all in all, I’m very happy with my Lunar Pilot two tone (blue and beige dial).
Amazing value
Very beautiful watch. The dial looks so clean in person. I also love that it comes with a leather strap. The leather strap makes it less dressy while still looking elegant. Very satisfied.
