Retrospective Look At The Bulova Curv And A Fast Take On The New Curv
The Bulova Curv watch celebrates its 10th anniversary with the introduction of the new CURV 41mm Chronograph, marking a decade since the brand first showcased the world's first curved chronograph movement. Initially unveiled at BaselWorld, the CURV was revolutionary for its ergonomic design, featuring a high-frequency quartz movement that vibrates at 262kHz, enabling exceptional accuracy. The new model retains the distinctive curved architecture while expanding its case size to 41mm, appealing to a broader audience without compromising its identity. Additionally, the CURV 41mm incorporates practical enhancements such as an interchangeable strap system that allows for easy transitions between a stainless steel bracelet and a rubber strap. Its translucent brown dial provides a glimpse of the updated HPQ CURV movement (caliber NR20) beneath, paired with luminous hands for legibility. Retailing at $1,450, the CURV 41mm Chronograph serves as a testament to Bulova's innovative spirit from a decade ago, underscoring the relevance of its forward-thinking design in today's market.
