Bulova Unveils ‘Young at Heart’ Watch Collection: A Timeless Tribute to Frank Sinatra
Bulova, the renowned American watchmaker, has launched its latest masterpiece: the ‘Young at Heart’ watch collection, paying homage to the legendary Frank Sinatra. This exquisite line seamlessly blends vintage Bulova aesthetics with elements that capture Sinatra’s timeless style, resulting in timepieces that are both nostalgic and contemporary.
The collection features two distinct models, each housed in a tonneau-shaped, gold-tone stainless steel case. At the heart of these watches beats the reliable Miyota Caliber 8215, a 21-jewel automatic movement boasting a 42-hour power reserve and calendar function. Watch enthusiasts will appreciate the exhibition case back, which not only showcases the intricate movement but also bears an engraving of the collection’s namesake song title, “Young at Heart,” alongside Sinatra’s iconic Fedora Hat—a motif that’s replicated on the watch’s crown.
The first model, reference 97B198, captivates with its rich whiskey-colored sunray dial. Gold-tone hands and markers harmonize beautifully with the warm dial hue, while Sinatra’s signature adds a personal touch. This timepiece is paired with a padded brown leather strap, elegantly stamped with “Young at Heart” on the inside. A deployant buckle ensures both comfort and security. The watch face is protected by a domed sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating, guaranteeing clarity in various lighting conditions. With water resistance up to 30 meters, this model combines style with practicality.
For those preferring a lighter palette, the second model (reference 97B197) offers a refined silver-white sunray dial. It shares many features with its sibling, including the gold-tone accents and Sinatra’s signature, but comes with a sophisticated black leather strap. This version maintains the same technical specifications, offering an alternative aesthetic for diverse tastes.
Both iterations in the ‘Young at Heart’ collection are more than mere timekeepers; they’re wearable tributes to Frank Sinatra’s enduring legacy. These watches encapsulate the essence of an era while embracing modern horological advancements, making them perfect for both Sinatra aficionados and watch collectors alike.
As Bulova continues to innovate while honoring its rich history, the ‘Young at Heart’ collection stands as a testament to the brand’s ability to create timepieces that are both nostalgic and relevant. These watches don’t just tell time—they tell a story, one of timeless style, musical legacy, and the enduring appeal of a true American icon.
