There was an interesting thread on TOF re: Bulova watches and I thought I'd carry the question over here if thats acceptable or not!?
We all know that Bulova was purchased by Citizen so does that make Bulova a Jap watch or are they considered American made?
From the info I could find it tells that Bulova is made in the U.S.A using either Miyota or Ronda movements!

From the info I could find it tells that Bulova is made in the U.S.A using either Miyota or Ronda movements! Bulova is considered an American company because that is where the head office is located. Citizen owns the company but other than movements; it seems to be happy to leave it autonomous. US labeling laws being what they are; the watches have to state where they are made and if there is a foreign made movement then; Swiss Movt or Movt Japan or whatever the case may be. |
