It’s a reissue of the bulova computron

It’s a solid 10 microns thick solid gold!

Also available with rubberB haha

Laugh all you want but when I wore my Dad's to school when I was in 7th grade people literally flipped out. That watch was probably close to $300 and was absolute state of the art for its time.

kilyung · 29 May 2019, 02:08 PM

Would fit right into my collection

Bladeshot · 29 May 2019, 03:12 PM

Man, I had one of these calculator watches in 1984 and it was the bomb. Thanks for the flashback. No gold

Brilliant :) Love that story :)

jimcameron · 29 May 2019, 06:16 PM

Which one is more accurate?

Old Expat Beast · 29 May 2019, 06:21 PM

Wouldn't buy either, but if I had the chance to borrow one for a week I'd choose the Bulova.

Monte Cristo · 29 May 2019, 06:59 PM

Looks like my bedside alarm clock minus the bracelet.

The Sub.

Looks like my alarm clock on legs.

Dsmith1974 · 29 May 2019, 10:02 PM

Good looking watch. Is that a heat sink on the top. How much power does that thing use?

cdmorenot · 29 May 2019, 10:04 PM

Haha! Way before my time for sure.

If that is in fact the heat sink, that thing is running i9 3.6GHz eight core so displaying the time ... about 80 Watts.

Sorry had to get a little geeky there.

I remember back in 1987-'88 saving up for the Casio Data Bank. The biggest decision was getting it in black or chrome. I choose black.

They were killer watches back in the day! My uncle had one, among a selection of Patek and Rolex watches he would wear. The gold Computron and yellow-gold Day-Date of his were my favorite.

I think I will buy one of those Bulova's when they become available. Fun and inexpensive. And with today's LED technology battery life must be pretty decent.

Funky design, but frankly, they still make more sense than the Tudor BB P01.....

rod442 · 30 May 2019, 01:08 AM

friend of mine had one of these in HS (SEIKO UC-2000). mid 80's.....
It was way cooler than a std calculator watch. $$$ for what it was. 4-500?

Do you have an 80's themed party to go to? The Computron would be cool for that.
