WHAT WE LOVE:
The Bulova Lunar Pilot Budii 150th Anniversary Limited Edition stands as a vivid fusion of historic space heritage and contemporary artistic expression. Created in collaboration with Brazilian artist Thiago Rosinhole, this special edition reimagines the legendary Lunar Pilot chronograph with a bold and visually captivating identity. Its 43.5 mm silver tone stainless steel case frames a mesmerising Timascus dial, crafted from titanium folded through the Damascus process to create a swirling, multi layered pattern that feels alive beneath the flat sapphire crystal. Blue accents on the slim chronograph pushers, the crown and the tachymeter ring deepen the visual richness, while the luminous hands and markers further enhance readability against the dial’s dramatic backdrop.
The watch carries six hand chronograph functionality with timing capability to 1/20th of a second, complemented by silver registers that remain crisp and balanced within the artistic layout. On the reverse, the engraved case back features Rosinhole’s signature Budii astronaut illustration accompanied by commemorative text honouring the Apollo 15 mission, firmly linking the watch to its place in spacefaring history. Completing the design is a three link stainless steel bracelet that mirrors the polished confidence of the case. Each piece is individually numbered, emphasising its exclusivity within the worldwide run of 5500 examples. The experience is elevated even further by the inclusion of a custom storybook and a signature six inch Budii figurine, designed exclusively for this collaboration, making this a truly collectible piece for those who cherish both horology and modern pop culture artistry.
WHAT'S INSDIE:
At the heart of the Lunar Pilot Budii edition is Bulova’s proprietary high precision quartz movement, engineered to resonate at 262 kHz for exceptional accuracy far exceeding that of standard quartz calibres. This elevated frequency enables the smooth sweep of the chronograph hand, bringing mechanical like motion to a highly advanced quartz architecture. The movement powers the central timekeeping display as well as the full chronograph suite with precise timing to 1/20th of a second, ensuring both reliability and performance worthy of the watch’s space linked lineage.
