Other: We have seen several of what we believe to be one-off Bulova Deep Sea Chronograph variations trickle out into the marketplace in recent years. This particular example is the only one that we've ever seen in this variation. Bulova reviewed this watch last year and explained that they made a number of custom pieces for important clients, which is most likely the origin of this specific piece. Bulova's creative director at that time would work directly with special clients to design and manufacture unique pieces that never went into normal production. How cool is that? If you collect Bulova Deep Sea Chronographs, Devil Divers, or vintage Bulova watches in general, this is a rare opportunity to own a unique piece of Bulova history that we will likely never see or find again.
