Drawing from Bulova’s long-standing connection to marine exploration and precision timekeeping, the Marine Star Automatic is crafted to evoke the durability and elegance of maritime instruments while offering the visual allure of a self-winding movement. Its design reflects a balance between sport and sophistication—intended for those who appreciate the artistry of automatic mechanics paired with bold, ocean-inspired styling.

We know that your Marine Star watch is important to you and understand that the sentimental value more often than not outweighs the monetary value. Our expert watchmakers strive to make sure your watch can be worn for many years to come.

Marine Star Black Chrono Watch Repair >

The Marine Star Black Chrono (specifically the 98B278 model) draws its inspiration from Bulova’s original 1970s Marine Star chronographs, blending bold vintage aesthetics with modern functionality. It pays homage to classic dive-watch styling through its black dial, luminous markers, and sturdy chronograph pushers—updated today with a sporty black silicone strap, gold-tone accents, and a 100 m water‐resistant case. This modern reinterpretation retains the rugged charm of its ancestor while meeting contemporary standards of performance and design.

Marine Star Black Dial Watch Repair >

The Marine Star Black Dial (96B382) draws its inspiration from both classic nautical timepieces and modern sport watches. Its design centers around a polished stainless-steel case and bracelet paired with a striking black sunray dial that captures light like the depths of the ocean. Accented with luminous hands and markers and a calendar function, it embodies Bulova’s vision of “summoning the high seas in elevated style,” harmonizing functional legibility with clean, maritime-inspired elegance and a water resistance of 100 meters.

Marine Star Blue Chrono Watch Repair >

The bold Marine Star Blue Chrono draws inspiration from classic dive chronographs and modern luxury-sport designs, combining a deep ocean-blue dial and bezel with robust rose-gold accents. Its oversized 45 mm case, 200 m water resistance, and six-hand chronograph layout evoke traditional diving instruments, while the blue glass bezel insert and two-tone finish nod to contemporary elegance. Many watch enthusiasts note its aesthetic nod to more upscale sporty icons—blending vintage marine gear elements with a hint of premium design flair.

Marine Star Two-Tone Watch Repair >

The Marine Star Two‑Tone (96B384) channels a sophisticated fusion of maritime heritage and polished elegance. Inspired by a desire to merge rugged, sea-ready robustness with refined design, it features a striking blue sunray dial enhanced by contrasting gold-tone accents on a silver-tone stainless-steel case and bracelet. The result is a versatile style—sporty yet dress-ready—anchored by practical features like a rotating bezel, luminous markers, date display, and 100 m water resistance, making it a seamless blend of form, function, and nautical flair.

Jane Murray ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I found Times Ticking on the internet. The last time I had a watch repaired locally it cost more than the watch did new. I got it back just like new 2 weeks later and 2,000 miles away. HIGHLY recommended. Times Ticking was prompt, inexpensive, and even phoned when they got my watch and told me in advance what it would cost to repair.

Keith Kerney ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Their service was grade A!!! They're quick and professional; they always kept me updated with status of my watches. Their work is flawless which they stand behind, to me most importantly. They speak to you as if you're an old friend asking for help; in which they're always happy to do. Times Ticking; a place where you can ask an old friend for help.

Matthew Emory ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I cannot speak to the local facilities or sales staff. I am an internet customer who took a chance and sent my prized Accutron watch across the country to folks I do not know and have never met. This was a big decision which took several weeks to discern. I am thrilled with my decision and am planning to send my Dad’s watch in for repair. The difference? This time there is no hesitation whatsoever.

Doug Hammer ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I had several issues with my Bulova mechanical watch, including running too fast. They not only fixed it, but it is better than when I bought it new. Amazing! And the only place I recommend for service.

Kent Bolin ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Outstanding in every way. TT exceeded all of my expectations…and my old watch is working like new.

Nameless Ghoul ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I never believed in miracles until the day I got my watch back. I never thought I would see it working again, but they made it happen. I am extremely happy with the work they did, and I definitely appreciate all the research they did to make this small miracle happen.

Brian Rudnicki ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Very satisfied with my experience. My favorite watch is now back running and working perfectly. I was a little leary as we are in GA and they are not but they were very timely and easy to communicate with so it all worked out great.

Ellen Hymes ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I was thrilled that they were able to repair and clean up a watch that I had inherited from my mother. It looks great and works great. The service was fast. The person who called me about the watch was very friendly and seemed grateful for my business. I would highly recommend them to anyone and will use them again if the need arises. So refreshing to receive such good customer service these days!

Peter K ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I highly recommend Times Ticking for watch repair. Jesse & crew know their stuff and even take the time to talk with you. They communicate very friendly/professionally and most of all the prices are more than fair for such craftsmen skills! My opinion: They are like the American Restoration of watches.

HISTORY OF MARINE STAR

The Legacy of Marine Star: A History of Precision, Style and Innovation

The Marine Star collection by Bulova began in the 1980s as a sport-luxury line inspired by nautical precision and maritime style. Building on Bulova’s legacy of innovation—dating back to its 1875 founding in New York—the Marine Star offered water-resistant chronographs and automatics that blended dive watch durability with refined design. Its bold coastal aesthetic and versatile functionality quickly attracted attention from those wanting both performance and polish.

Over time, the Marine Star expanded to include open-heart automatics, Precisionist models, and more fashion-forward variations. Despite evolving styles and technologies, each version remained rooted in Bulova’s seafaring inspiration and commitment to quality. Today, the Marine Star continues to represent the brand’s fusion of innovation, heritage, and enduring appeal.
