Bulova 96K115 Lunar Pilot Chronograph is a smaller version of the popular Lunar Pilot models. It has a case diameter of 43,5 mm, which also suits smaller wrists. The watch stands out for its design and finish, but above all for its connection to 1971, when astronaut David Scott used his own Bulova Chronograph watch during the Apollo 15 mission. This happened after the crystal on his Omega watch, originally selected for the American space programme, cracked. Since this came to light, the watch has been renamed the Bulova Moonwatch.
The case of the Bulova 96K115 Lunar Pilot Chronograph is made of stainless steel, and its design is based on the legendary Bulova Chronograph watch used by astronaut Scott during the Apollo 15 mission. Inside is a high-performance UHF quartz (Ultra High Frequency) movement operating at a frequency of 262 kHz. This is approximately 8 times higher than that of standard quartz movements (32768 Hz). This allows for extreme accuracy, with a deviation of approximately 10 s per year. The movement also offers a chronograph function.
The clearly legible, finely finished red dial has a subtle texture and contrasting silver subdials. It is protected by a raised sapphire crystal with an anti-reflective coating. The crystal is resistant to scratches, and the anti-reflective coating ensures excellent legibility even in direct light.
The watch comes on a steel strap, which can be replaced with a black leather strap with contrasting red stitching that is included in the package. The watch has a water resistance of 50 m.

The story of the Bulova brand begins in 1875 and has its roots in Bohemia. The founder was a Czech native Josef Bulova, who founded the J. Bulova Company in New York. He managed to build a large watch factory. In 1912, production was moved to Biel, Switzerland. In addition to the development of technological innovations, the company also scored in the field of marketing. She was the first to use television commercials.
Bulova achieved the greatest success in the development of electronically powered watches. The highlight was the introduction of a system with a tuner called Bulova Accutron. Another astronaut, David Scott, took care of another legendary moment. During the Apollo 15 mission, he took the Bulova Chronograph watch for a walk on the moon.
The Bulova brand is not idle and continues to offer top products in the field of precision. The offer includes a high performance quartz movement operating at a high frequency (262 kHz) with an accuracy of about 10 s per year, or the Curv movement, which is also the first curved movement with a chronograph in the world.
