It's a watch company with extremely rich history and currently owned by a billionaire (or so what i hv read).

Anyone collecting these pieces?

You're right. BULOVA is a US company, and it has been established for many decades. It's well-known for producing classical timepieces (watches and clocks).

IMO, all I can say is Swiss watches still dominates in most parts of the world and BULOVA has yet to reach that level of recognition and prestige

I really like the look of the last pic. wonder why rolex never did raise a legal issue abt this series though. read from pmwf that this is a poor man's sub...very true i must say. no offense to anyone in particular.

I was about to get one a few years back. The shop owner himself told me the glass is mineral. It was at Wins (????) watch in bencoolen. Change my mind and i get Sandoz instead (now history).

Yes I could testify to this. I used to own a Bulova white 'Explorer II'. It broke down less than a year after purchase. Now it is in cold palace.
