Beautiful Watch
I ordered this because I really like the Bulova company and the quality that goes into their timepieces. I prefer the automatic self-winding watches that rely on mechanical gears, with jewels to reduce friction, and no batteries to run down and change. So far this has been very accurate for me, keeping the right time within about 10 to 15 seconds per day.This particular watch is stainless steel and black with a quality leather watchband and a classic look. It radiates quality without appearing ostentatious. It is just what I need when I’m at work. I still like to have a watch on my wrist so I’m not pulling my phone out of my pocket whenever I need to check the time.The watch gears and movement can be viewed from the transparent backing, and there is a small round understated window on the face of the watch as well. I specifically purchased this style of Bulova watch because I wanted the classic Bulova tuning fork logo at the 12:00 position, which is not present universally on all Bulova watches.This watch makes a great gift for any executive types in the family or circle of friends, especially those persons that are hard to shop for. I also recommend obtaining a mechanical rotating watch winder for automatic watches, many kinds are available here on Amazon. This keeps the watch from running down if you don’t use it for a few days.Overall, I’m very happy with this purchase, it is a good value for an elegant watch. Highly recommended.

Classic, Timeless & Not Heavy
I appreciate how light this watch is because I can type at my computer without my wrist getting tired and hurting from the weight of it. This is a great work-appropriate office watch with understated timeless elegance and a beautiful leather watch band that will not go out of style. The leather watch band is soft on the underside and doesn't feel ruff when it rubs up against your skin. I know Bulova isn't considered a luxury watch brand, but the feel and look of it are serving understated luxury within a reasonable price, which I really like. The crown is easy to deploy and put back into place, and having an automatic watch is nice because there is no need to replace a battery.

Great Watch
I own several Bulova's and this is by far my favorite. The size is perfect and the look is clean and classy. It took a couple of months for me to get the timing right because I don't own a timegrapher, so it was a manual tweek every few days against the NIST master clock. It now gains about 15 seconds a WEEK, which for an automatic that didn't cost thousands is excellent. I wish it had more reserve than 40 hours, but that really doesn't affect my opinion. Marvelous watch!

Almost Perfect Dress Watch
The media could not be loaded. Got on prime day for a great value. I have a few automatic watches but no dress watches. The accuracy is 1-2 seconds fast per 24 hours. Size could be slightly smaller since it is a dress watch, I also had to add an extra hole in the strap for my 6.5 inch wrists. The weight is light and unnoticeable, the watch only makes noise while the rotor spins. After sizing correctly, I don’t want to take it off. It was between this or the Bambino and I’m glad I picked this.

Great value with reliable movement
This is a solid entry-level automatic watch with a reliable Miyota 82S0 movement (open heart design). Miyota is a Japanese manufacturer known for their quality movements, which have earned a reputation as “workhorses”. Bulova has added several nice touches to the watch itself. The balance spring has been rotated from a 7 o’clock position as Miyota manufactures it to the 6 o’clock. This makes the open heart nice and centered. The opening has a polished stainless steel ring around it which blends in really nicely with the case and tick marks. The dial itself has a really attractive matte texture which enhances the appearance of quality.Overall, I’m really happy with the purchase. This is starter watch for me, and I wanted something that was reliable and visually engaging. The Miyota movement and open heart design check these boxes.

Very nicely crafted, and not too expensive.
Been wearing this watch a few times a week for a little while now, and I really like it. It looks nice, feels nice, and keeps great time. No complaints whatsoever. Good value for the money. Overall, I would recommend this.

Gorgeous
I purchased this watch for my husband's birthday. I could tell by the smile on his face that he loved it before he even put it on. The packaging was nice and the watch is stunning. I think he loves showing it off because he chooses shirts that won't conceal it when he's wearing it. This was his first wind up watch and took him a while to get used to. Definitely the best watch in his collection for a great price.
