No one makes clocks quite like Bulova

No one makes clocks quite like Bulova. Whether you are looking for a unique miniature collectible clock, or an elegant mantel clock, Bulova has one that will suit your needs. Every Bulova Limited Edition Miniature Collectible Clock is individually numbered and accompanied by a certificate of authenticity attesting to its position in a single controlled production run. Whether you are interested in a rotating sail Windmill or the charm of a British phone booth with ringing phone, Bulova has the miniature for you.

Holiday collectibles include a snowman, a holiday train or a gingerbread house. For the musically inclined, they have an award-winning piano clock, a gramophone or an enchanting jukebox. There is also an Alcatraz lighthouse, a weathervane or an antique globe miniature clock. The porch swing, the Coquetries furniture design, or the old-fashioned rocking chair miniature clock intrigues many people. For the nostalgic, there's also a delivery bike, a mailbox, a gas pump, a civil war cannon or an antique stove. Bulova adds and retires pieces in the collection each year.

Inspired by classic late 19th and early 20th century designs, Bulova recently introduced the Streets of Time Collection. These are superbly crafted street clock replicas that recall a rich tradition of timekeeping artistry. Masterfully detailed on all sides, each clock features meticulous ornamentation, tapered spear hands, and a beautifully applied finish over solid metal. These are a treasure to give or receive. Mantel clocks have German movements and are available with Westminster chimes on the quarter or hour. Pendulum clocks have intrigued people since the beginning of time. Many mantel clocks have decorative carved accents, and screened glass fronts and side panels. Some are equipped with night shut off, and play a selection of chimes.

Wood finishes are available in golden oak to deep rich mahogany. Engraving names or sentiments is always appreciated on these beautiful timepieces. Anniversary clocks are traditionally brass with a revolving pendulum. Genuine Swarovski crystal graces some of these models. Westminster or other chimes on the quarter or full hour are another feature. Tabletop clocks are usually in brass or silver tone with occasionally some wood accents. They grace any room or office. Many have a picture frame on one side. These are hinged in metal, wood or leather. They are perfect keepsakes for those special moments that mean so much.

Every desk deserves a clock from the Bulova executive collection. Some have pens, letter openers, or business card holders attached. Many are available in elegant wood finishes and have international time for the convenience of the international businessman. Some also have thermometers or hygrometers to keep the office comfortable. Of course, there are Maritime clocks in the collection.

Any boater or would-be boater would cherish one of these. Time and tide are displayed in many along with Fahrenheit and Celsius weather scales. Travelers always need a small travel alarm clock. You cannot depend on a wake-up call or the room-equipped clock. Whether you choose one with an ascending alarm, or world time, or am/fm radio, these clocks are a necessity for the traveler. Since many consumers have often used a Bulova bedside alarm clock, they are already acquainted with the quality and dependability.

Wall clocks and wall chime clocks help with your decor. These clocks are a focal point that enhances a room along with pictures or a mirror. The wall collection is available in old world walnut finished, golden oak and an array of two-tones. The licensed collection of Pfaltzgraff patterns is the choice for dining rooms and kitchens.

To commemorate an important milestone, acknowledge exceptional performance or provide incentive for continued achievement, nothing speaks as personally as a customized Bulova timepiece. Logos or designs can be custom imprinted or silk-screened on engraving plates. These are the ideal corporate gifts.
