Bulova Parking Meter Bullhead Automatic Chronograph Micro Rotor Watch 1973

A BULOVA PARKING METER watch, also known as the “Bullhead,” from 1973, the year this model was first produced. This chronograph watch is equipped with an automatic micro-rotor movement. The inner bezel features a tachymeter scale. Its size and overall aesthetic make it a very representative model of its era. The chronograph and small seconds dials are arranged and shaped to evoke the form of classic parking meters, hence its name “Parking Meter.” The slate blue color of the outer bezel also evokes the color of some of these parking meters and underlines the watch's “bullhead” aesthetic, completed by the pushers located approximately at 10:10 on the outside of the case. In addition to its aesthetic reminiscent of parking meters of that era, this watch features colors so prevalent in the 1970s. Thus, the blue dials and bezel are complemented by a yellow chronograph hand. Technically, this watch offers several complications: a date calendar, a tachymeter scale, and the crown at 6 o'clock rotates a dial ring for a dual time function. A particularly sought-after watch among collectors, it comes from the renowned American brand Bulova. The watch is signed and numbered. Its movement is in perfect working order and has been serviced. Its proper functioning is guaranteed by us for one year (except in case of shock or immersion). The blue bezel shows signs of wear, given that this watch is a vintage timepiece and not a reissue.
