Bulova’s new Accutron Astronaut GMT Automatic and Lunar Pilot

Anyone catch of glimpse of Bulova’s new Accutron Astronaut GMT
Automatic? Or Lunar Pilot?

Just a few of the many details include a 41mm stainless steel case
for the Astronaut, and 43.5mm stainless steel case for the Lunar
Pilot. In addition you have a nice black dial on the Astronaut, as
well as two tone bezel. Along with black, or blue and white dials
on the Lunar Pilot, with Tachymeter bezel. With the NP20 High
Precision Quartz movement powering the Lunar Pilot, and then
Sellita Sw330-1 the Astronut.

Have a look...

I really like the chronograph.... that Accutron is like $2500!!

Too bad everything is so expensive these days.

Yup, it's crazy right Gary?!   I don't get it either, and really, if the watches were $250 then 
people could actually get in on the Astronaut fun, but unfortunately it does seem to be a money
thing unfortunately. ..But who knows, maybe a regular non limited version which isn't nearly as
expensive will be coming at some point in the future. 

I know it's wishful thinking, but we have to dream right G?! 


I want to thank you for taking the time to chime in on these sir !!!

Maybe there is a regular version as well, but the LE edition hit stores yesterday. Limited to 300 pieces.

I thought it was $2500, it's $3500!!

Wow, that is crazy huh Gary?!

A lot of the time I don’t even look at the prices when I report on a watch, because
I just see the watch and then want to report on it. However, one really has to
wonder what Bulova is thinking here. I mean not that the watches aren’t amazing,
it’s just that you would think they would want to make as many of these as they
could and let fans of Bulova/Accutron enjoy.

It is very disappointing in that respect for sure.

But thanks a ton for posting up all of that info in any case sir !!!
