Find out more now about the watch and its special features.
The Mother-of-Pearl Dial
The dial of this watch is made of mother-of-pearl, but what exactly is mother-of-pearl, and what is it made of? Mother-of-pearl is a natural composite material made of calcium carbonate and organic substances that forms the innermost layer or the entire predominantly mineral part of the shell of certain mollusks. Due to its special surface structure, which creates a matte, iridescent sheen when light falls on it, it is used in the production of decorative objects such as jewelry and ornamental buttons. Mother-of-pearl is deposited by numerous mollusks for building their shells, especially by pteriid mussels, including pearl mussels, as well as by turban snails or top shells, abalone, and nautiluses, which belong to the cephalopods. The colors of mother-of-pearl vary depending on the species and geographic origin. In our watch of the week, it shimmers in a wonderful snow white-silver.
Our Bulova 98P192
The women's watch features a silver-colored link bracelet with rose gold-colored elements made of stainless steel. The case is made of rose gold-colored stainless steel. The mother-of-pearl dial also features rose gold-colored hands, diamonds as dot indices, and the Bulova logo at the 12 o'clock position. This logo is a tuning fork, as the Bulova brand became known, among other things, for its tuning fork watch, the Accutron. The Bulova wristwatch is a quartz watch with a water resistance of 3 bar. Another, slightly more understated version is the Bulova 96P216. This is the same model, but without the rose gold-colored eye-catchers. The watch is completely silver, and the mother-of-pearl dial is light and slightly cream-colored. Overall, this watch appears as white and shimmering as snow.
