The 262kHz (262,144Hz) of Bulova’s UHF movements is thus much more than circa 33kHz of standard quartz movements. That means several times the accuracy. The result is a movement which for the most part is accurate to within several seconds per year, as opposed to several seconds per month for standard quartz, and several seconds per day for mechanical watches. The watch goes along the theme of a reliable tool watch meant for precision activity and this type of accuracy makes the product all that much more desirable.

The High Performance Quartz movement inside of the Bulova Moon Chronograph watch features the time, 12-hour chronograph, and the date. The chronograph is accurate to 1/10th of a second. The dial design is no-nonsense but elegant, with a high contrast between the matte black dial and the white lume-coated hands and hour markers. Over the dial is a flat AR-coated sapphire crystal, which is a nice feature in a watch at this price. In vintage style, the crystal is raised up a bit and not flush with the bezel.

Around the dial is a raised rehaut ring with a tachymeter scale used to measure speed when distance reference points are viewable. You will more than likely never use the tachymeter scale, and they continue to exist as a neat-looking vestige of the past. The raised tachymeter scale ring, as well as the applied hour markers and the recessed seconds scale on the dial create a very welcome sense of depth. In addition to a welcome three-dimensional view of the face, the hands and hour markers are sized properly and very proportionate. This gives the overall dial design both a functional and beautiful look.

At 45mm wide and 13.5mm thick (water resistant to 50 meters), the Bulova Moon Chronograph watch is on the larger side, and that is likely to be people’s main point of concern in getting one. The size lugs are stubby and the watch wears very comfortably. The steel case is very nicely rendered
