Bulova's "Marine Star" features the same case, bezel and dial design as the Zenith "Cronometro Tipo CP-2" delivered to the Italian military by A. Cairelli and the "Montecarlo" by Excelsior Park. This remarkably attractive chronograph is in excellent original condition; its masculine appeal and the striking dial make it a wonderful and highly coveted timepiece sure to be loved by any fan of vintage wrist chronographs.
