Bulova Vanderbilt Pendulum Chime Clock

Bulova is a storied American timepiece manufacturing company founded in NYC in 1875 by Bohemian immigrant Joseph Bulova. Bulova’s legendary history includes collaboration with Charles Lindbergh, a relationship with Frank Sinatra, 46 NASA missions (a Bulova timer was even placed in the sea of tranquility on the first moonwalk), and industry innovations, like pioneering standardized production and developing the first fully electronic watch with proprietary tuning-fork technology, that transformed the way the world perceived time.
