A historically significant Bulova Accutron powered by the legendary Caliber 2181 tuning-fork movement. Presented by Boeing in 1974 as a 30-year service award, this watch features a co-branded dial with the Boeing logo, celebrating decades of aerospace innovation. Accutron technology was closely tied to aviation and space exploration, making this an especially fitting award. A rare and meaningful crossover of horology and aerospace history.

About the Brand

Bulova: One of America’s foremost manufacturers, Bulova was founded in the late 19th century by Joseph Bulova in Queens, NY. The brand quickly established itself as a maker of high quality watches, and became fully ingrained in American culture - even producing the first ever television commercial. Known for models like their Devil Diver, Sea King, and the later Accutron models, Bulova is something of the un-sung hero of American watchmaking, and a treasure trove for a vintage collector.
