Designed to be Noticed – Bulova 96B251 Special Edition Moon Apollo Lunar Pilot Mens Chronograph

Special Edition Lunar Pilot Chronograph from the Archive Series. Six-hand chronograph movement features proprietary high-performance quartz technology with 262 kHz vibrational frequency for precise accuracy. This classic collectors model is complete with a matte 45mm stainless steel case, black dial with white accents, anti-reflective sapphire crystal, black leather strap and an water resistance to 50 meters.

The special edition 96B251 is shipped with special Bulova packaging and includes an interchangeable nylon strap with a nubuck leather patch that commemorates the date of mission (DOM) as 08021971, a watch tool and a special edition watch booklet.

The heart of the Bulova 96B251 is its Precisionist movement, a quartz technology that boasts an impressive accuracy of +/- 10 seconds per year. This level of precision far surpasses standard quartz movements, making the Precisionist one of the most accurate non-GPS, non-radio-controlled watches on the market. The second hand moves in a smooth, sweeping motion, similar to mechanical watches, rather than the typical ticking motion seen in quartz watches.

In addition to the main timekeeping functions, the 96B251 features chronograph functionality, with the ability to measure elapsed time down to 1/1000th of a second, which is a unique and impressive capability. This makes it an excellent choice for those who need precise timing, such as athletes or enthusiasts of motorsports.

What we love: Timepiece with history. This is the only version with the special packaging and includes extras. The Bulova 96B251 is a standout watch within the Precisionist line, offering unparalleled accuracy, a strong and distinctive design, and practical chronograph functionality. While its size may not appeal to everyone, it’s a perfect choice for those who appreciate bold, oversized watches with a strong focus on performance and precision. Whether you're timing events down to a fraction of a second or simply looking for a reliable, eye-catching sports watch, the Bulova 96B251 delivers both in terms of style and technical capability.
