You can think of Bulova and Movado as a more niche and traditionalist types of watches. As both watchmakers incorporate traditional watchmaking techniques, the only viable comparison to have is with their aesthetics. In this regard, it is more of a personal preference than anything. Let us take two particular watches from each brand and compare them with each other to get an easier grasp of the difference, shall we?
The Movado Museum Sport Model delivers that signature Movado Museum appeal, but with enough changes to make it a far more practical and reliable timepiece that provides both style and substance. The Movado Museum Sport is surprisingly lightweight for a 44mm steel watch.
Since it uses Swiss quartz movement, that feat is entirely plausible, but it was still surprising to feel how light it was as it certainly did not give off that vibe at first glance. One of the most prevalent Museum watch complaints is how it can be a tad bit tricky to tell the time due to it mostly not incorporating any digits displayed on the watch face.
Stylish design choice? But it does make checking the time a couple of seconds longer than it should be. Still, I have to admit that the Movado Museum Sport managed to pull it off with pizzazz. See on Amazon See on eBay. The Bulova Gunmetal Precisionist is one rugged looking chronograph watch designed for durability more so than style. As a 46mm black stainless-steel watch, it certainly feels like it and is noticeably heavier than the Movado Museum Sport.
That being said, this particular watch certainly captures the tough as nails appearance while still exuding a sense of style and finesse that is quite difficult to blend together, yet the Bulova Gunmetal Precisionist manages to deliver.
Unlike the Movado Museum Sport, the Bulova Gunmetal uses the traditional analog display, making it considerably quicker to check the time when compared to the extremely minimalist appearance that Movado Museum watches have. While the Bulova Gunmetal weighs substantially more than the Museum Sport, it is still quite comfortable to wear and is on par with the MS in this regard. This gold-plated stainless steel and ceramic combo is a pretty take on a bracelet style.
Michele watches have made a name for themselves thanks to their interchangeable straps. The architecturally-minded Deco silhouette is one of the most popular faces.
We love the two-tone metal for the endless jewelry-pairing options. Swiss brand Tissot produces traditional watches at affordable price points, like this handsome croc-embossed leather strap style with Roman numeral dial.

Before sustainability was status quo, Citizen adapted an environmental sensibility with its Eco-Drive innovation.
