- Self-winding: The self-winding movement has a small pendulum that uses the wearers everyday movements to wind the watch.
- Battery/quartz movement: This uses an extremely thin quartz crystal that vibrates at an exact frequency from electric impulses supplied by a small battery. Since the first battery-powered wristwatches went into production in 1969, the number that could be classified as vintage is extremely limited.
There are three basic types of crystals on Bulova watches that you can obtain on eBay:
- Acrylic: This is basically a type of plastic, is the easiest to scratch, but also the easiest to repair, requiring only a quick buffing to removes scratches
- Mineral glass: This is a specific type of heat-treated, scratch-resistant, tempered glass.
- Sapphire glass: This is a synthetic material made by heating aluminum oxide under extreme temperatures. A sapphire crystal is several times harder than steel and is the second hardest material on earth. Only diamond is harder.

Concerns about radioactivity may play a role in your decision-making. Early vintage Bulova watches used such small amounts of radioactive radium that they are harmless, however. More recent watches use radioactive material embedded in microscopic, hermetically sealed tubes made of borosilicate glass.
