1979 Bulova Automatic Day Date Deep Red Dial 35.5mm
Here we have a 1979 Bulova Automatic Day Date Deep Red Dial 35.5mm, featuring a classic 35.5mm stainless steel case that perfectly captures the transitional style of the late 70s. Bulova, a pioneer in American horology, was deeply integrated into the Swiss movement market by this era, frequently utilising high-quality ETA-based calibres to compete with the rising tide of quartz. The "N9" code on the case back confirms its 1979 production date. The lug-to-lug of 41.5mm and a slender case thickness of 10mm ensure an incredibly elegant and slim profile on the wrist, making it a versatile choice for both casual and formal wear. At 3 o’clock, a signed crown allows manual winding and quick setting of the day and date functions. A polished bezel holds a flat crystal over a striking, deep-red dial that shifts beautifully in the light. The dial is set with applied baton indexes, while a framed day-date window sits at the 3 o'clock position. Simple stick hands and a fine sweeping second hand maintain the dial's clean, sophisticated aesthetic. On the reverse, a screw-down case back bears the model reference and the serial number. Inside is the Automatic Bulova Cal. 1413.10, which is based on the robust and highly regarded ETA 2836-1, a 17-jewel high-beat movement known for its reliability and smooth sweep. The watch comes fitted with a 22mm leather strap, which, given the wide lug width for its case size, gives the watch a unique and commanding presence on the wrist.
