The ultra-stylish but slightly unorthodox Bulova 'Parking Meter' Chronograph has been revived by the brand to offer discerning timepiece aficionados with a retro accessory to add to their collection.
The timepiece is characterized first and foremost by its distinctly shaped subdials, which combine to form the shape of the namesake parking meter. The watch boasts a bullhead style and boasts top-mounted chrono pushers and a down at the six-o'clock point to reinforce the distinct form of the accessory.
The Bulova 'Parking Meter' Chronograph has a tachymeter inner bezel ring and a deep-set main dial within its stainless steel case, which measures in at 43mm. The high-quality quartz timepiece boasts a silver, blue and orange color scheme to give it a slightly sporty finish that's also inherently retro.
