Bulova watches were founded by 24-year-old Bohemian immigrant Joseph Bulova in 1897 Woodside, New York where its headquarters remain today, nearly a century-and-a-half later. Putting an emphasis on innovation and technological evolution, Mr. Bulova grew his business to the point that a second operation was established in Flushing, New York as well. American citizens grew to associate the name Bulova with advancement, which was never more evident than in 1941 when All Usa Bulova Watches paid for the first aired television commercial before a baseball game on a New York station. Mr. Bulova’s educational legacy lives on today through the Joseph Bulova School of Watchmaking, which has now been flourishing for nearly seven decades.
Birthed in 1960, the Bulova Accutron was hailed as the first fully electronic watch. The hands of each Bulova Accutron watch are driven by a tuning fork inside the movement, which is how the watches keep such accurate time. Since the tuning fork itself is in turn powered by an electronic oscillator circuit, the Bulova Accutron watches can be considered the world’s first electronic watch. Railroad engineers quickly took to these men’s Bulova Accutrons, and the time pieces became the first railroad-approved watches in the history of the country. While other watches rely upon batteries or cells that eventually die out, many Accutron watches have automatic movements that are powered by the wearer’s wrist.
