The Bulova Computron LED Watch has been brought back by the timepiece brand to offer consumers a decidedly futuristic yet inherently retro way to keep time. Coming in three color options, the timepiece boasts an all-digital design that was first introduced by the brand in the late 1970s and is characterized by its trapezoidal case. The angled design puts the digital display at the optimal position for the wearer to read, which further enhances the functional design of the simplistically retro timepiece.
The Bulova Computron LED Watch is priced from $295 and is part of the shift towards high-end fashion items with an old-fashioned aesthetic that reminds consumers of the previous iterations of what the future might look and feel like.
