On August 2, 1971, Bulova landed on the moon during the Apollo 15 mission and made space history. Now, more than 50 years later, Bulova has made history again with the re-issue of the Lunar Pilot Chronograph as part of the brand's most nostalgic collection, The Archive Series. Originally produced as a prototype, the Lunar Pilot found its way onto the moon after Bulova engineers customised a chronograph that could withstand lunar conditions. Bulova finally earned the title of "Moon Watch" when Apollo 15 Mission Commander David R. Scott wore the model, his own personal watch, as a backup after the glass of his Speedmaster came off during his earlier moonwalk, forever solidifying Bulova's reputation. Not only does the Lunar Pilot make for a great conversation piece, but Bulova made sure to capture the spirit of the original by authentically recreating the design. Although the original was mechanical, the re-issued models feature an exclusive high-performance quartz movement with a vibrational frequency of 262 kHz, continuing its history of unparalleled accuracy and precision timing. These limited edition watches serve as a reminder of America's efforts during the golden age of aviation and space exploration and the crucial role Bulova had played.
