Hey all,
My friend just purchased this Bulova watch. It says it is a Frank Lloyd Wright signature series Bulova watch but we can't find any information about it at all online. Does anyone here know anything about it?
Thanks!

Yes, it's part of a newer Collection of Bulova Watches endorsed by the Frank Lloyd Wright foundation.

The connection Frank Lloyd Wright ultimately had to Bulova Watch Co was/is the subject of a thread here at the site.
It is believed, although yet to be proven that Frank Lloyd Wright helped plan the redesign of Bulova Corporate Center in the early 1950's when it was converted from a Manufacturing facility to Office space and is responsible for a Bulova Watch design of that same period.
FifthAvenue,
I appreciate your info, I am the friend listed above that actually bought this watch, but it does not give me any info on this particulate model. I followed your links and even found a "shop" section in the franklloydwright.org site, but this watch was not one of the 4 models there. I am hoping to learn more when I get this watch in the mail, which should be sometime next week. Ill post what I find.
Ok, I have had this watch for a while now. I took it to my jeweler and he was not able to tell me anything about it. I checked all over the internet and I cant find any information. The more I look for any information about this watch, the more I NEED to know its story. I think I might call Bulova and see if I can get any info from them.
