The heart of the watch is the automatic caliber 82S0, a 21-jewel mechanical movement powered by the natural motion of the wrist and with a power reserve of about 40–42 hours. It does not require a battery.

One of the most fascinating elements is the Open Heart opening at 6 o'clock, which allows direct viewing of part of the movement, including the oscillating balance wheel. A detail that adds dynamism to an otherwise very clean and classic dial.

The dial presents a refined light shade with a slightly satin finish, paired with applied indices and rose gold-tone hands. At 12 o'clock is the characteristic Bulova applied emblem, while to the right of the aperture are the inscriptions “Automatic – 21 Jewels.”

The case measures 41 mm in diameter and is made of stainless steel with an elegant rose gold-tone finish. The polished and satin surfaces highlight the slim lines of the case and lugs.

The crown is branded with the Bulova logo, another detail that underscores the model’s aesthetic care.

Completing the watch is an elegant brown leather strap, with an alligator-style pattern, contrasting stitching and a light interior branded Bulova. The rose gold-tone buckle is also branded with the brand’s logo.

The model also features a transparent case back, which allows admiring the automatic movement from the back of the watch. The glass is mineral and the stated water resistance is 3 bar / 30 meters.

Bulova is a house founded in New York in 1875 by Joseph Bulova and, throughout its long history, has stood out for the combination of watchmaking tradition, technical innovation and American design. The Aerojet carries forward this heritage through a classic vintage-inspired style paired with modern automatic movement.

The piece offered is presented in excellent aesthetic condition, with the case, dial, glass and strap very well preserved, as visible in the photographs.
