Product Overview

Part of Bulova’s Modern Gemini collection, this watch is engineered for those who appreciate clean lines, understated luxury, and precision timekeeping.

Key Features

• Black Curved Tonneau Stainless Steel Case – The watch’s tonneau-shaped case, finished in a sleek black stainless steel, offers a distinctive modern profile that contours naturally to the wrist. This ergonomic design ensures a comfortable fit while maintaining a strong visual presence. The black finish is both durable and resistant to daily wear, helping the watch retain its sharp appearance over time.
• Edge-to-Edge Metalized Crystal – One of the defining elements of the Modern Gemini collection, the metalized crystal extends from edge to edge, creating a seamless, reflective surface that enhances both clarity and durability. This design eliminates traditional bezels, giving the watch a sleek, integrated look that catches light subtly and elevates its premium feel.
• Black 3-Hand Dial with Diamond Accents – The deep black dial features three hands for hour, minute, and second display, ensuring easy readability in various lighting conditions. At each 15-minute interval—3, 6, 9, and 12 o’clock—a single brilliant hand-set diamond serves as a marker, adding a refined touch of luxury. These diamonds are carefully selected and set to enhance visual balance and provide a subtle sparkle that complements the watch’s monochrome theme.
• Black Stainless Steel Bracelet with Deployant Clasp – The bracelet continues the watch’s cohesive black-on-black design, crafted from the same durable stainless steel as the case. It features a deployant clasp with pushers, allowing for secure closure and easy adjustment. This type of clasp ensures a smooth, uninterrupted profile on the wrist while offering reliable security during wear.
• Contemporary Monochrome Design – Every component of the watch, from the case and crystal to the dial and bracelet, is unified in a consistent black finish. This creates a bold, modern aesthetic that pairs effortlessly with a wide range of attire, from tailored suits to smart-casual looks. The result is a timepiece that makes a confident statement without overwhelming the overall style.
