Jet Star : 96B401

The Bulova 96B401 Jet Star, released in 2023, is part of the Jet Star collection and features a design that harks back to the iconic models of the 1970s. This watch showcases a stainless steel case with a distinctive angular design and broad facets, measuring 40 mm in diameter. The claret sunburst dial is complemented by a black chapter ring and applied black and red hour markers, while silver-tone and red hands enhance its visual appeal. Luminescent plots at each hour and on the hands ensure legibility in various lighting conditions, with a date display positioned at 3 o'clock. The watch is powered by Bulova's Precisionist movement, known for its remarkable accuracy of up to 5 seconds per month and resistance to temperature changes, featuring an 8-jewel quartz mechanism vibrating at 262kHz with a sweeping seconds hand. Additionally, the watch includes a matching stainless steel bracelet with a deployant clasp closure and latched spring bars for easy release. This contemporary reissue combines vintage aesthetics with modern precision, making it both a tribute to Bulova's heritage and an impressive timepiece in its own right.
