Part of the Renowned Sutton Collection

The Sutton Collection represents Bulova's take on understated, everyday elegance for women who prefer refined design over statement-making size. The 97L177 continues that identity with a classic rectangular silhouette that reads as timeless rather than trend-driven — a dress watch built to be worn for years, not just a season.

Design: A Rectangular Case That Shines in the Light

The refined gold-tone stainless steel rectangular case features a curved mineral crystal and a finish that catches the light beautifully from multiple angles. At just 21mm in case width with a 14mm lug width, the Sutton wears as a genuinely delicate, feminine piece rather than an oversized statement watch.

The Dial: Lustrous Mother-of-Pearl

The dial's mother-of-pearl finish gives the watch a soft, luminous quality that shifts subtly depending on the light and angle — a hallmark of genuine mother-of-pearl over a flat painted dial. Gold-tone Roman numeral markers at 6 and 12 o'clock, paired with matching gold-tone hands, complete a look of quiet, classic sophistication.

The Bracelet: Comfort Meets Craftsmanship

A matching five-link gold-tone stainless steel bracelet completes the design, secured with a deployant closure with pushers for a precise, comfortable fit. Latched spring bars allow for easy release, making strap adjustments and sizing simple without needing a jeweler's tools.

What to Know Before You Buy

The Sutton 97L177 is rated for splash resistance rather than swimming or diving, so it's best suited to everyday wear and occasional light water contact rather than pool or ocean use. It's a quartz watch, meaning no winding routine and dependable, low-maintenance timekeeping day to day.

Authenticity & Warranty

As an authorized Bulova dealer, Lexor Miami guarantees that every Sutton 97L177 is 100% authentic, with free shipping and free returns.

Note: the Lexor Miami product listing states "2 years of warranty," while Bulova's official warranty page states that all Bulova timepieces are covered by a 3-year limited warranty. We'd recommend confirming which term applies to this specific unit before publishing.

Care & Maintenance

  • Avoid submerging the watch in water; it's rated for splash resistance only, not swimming or diving.
  • Clean the mother-of-pearl dial and gold-tone case with a soft, dry cloth — avoid harsh chemicals or ultrasonic cleaners.
  • Store away from direct sunlight when not worn to help preserve the gold-tone finish.
  • Have the battery replaced through an authorized Bulova service center once the movement shows signs of slowing.
