Even for a mechanical (automatic) movement, this one is particularly inaccurate, gaining about eight seconds in three or four days, after having been worn or kept on a winder, at all times, and never wound manually.

Purchased this watch 3 months ago. First time in rotation, it lost 20 minutes over the first day. I set it aside for a month, and tried it again as I love its fit feel and appearance. This second time I wore it, I lost 15 Seconds over the first day. Now it has supplanted my seiko 5 as the watch to wear. Love it!
I purchased this watch today from my favorite local jewelry store. The watch is wonderful and beautiful. The upper and lower controls on the stem side of the watch which control the moving parts inside and under the crystal (the Rotating Elapsed Hour and Minute Dial Rings) are fascinating, but in order for the dials to work properly they need to be locked down. So, if you, Bulova, make another edition of this watch, please have the stems for the rotating dials pull out, then adjust the dials, and then push back in to lock the dials in place. They are way too easily moved which will change the elapsed time. Those adjustment stems just need to lock down to prevent the dials from moving once they are set. But otherwise, the watch is beautiful and seems to work wonderfully. I have a number of Bulova watches and Bulova is my favorite watch brand by far. All my recent purchases have been Automatic watches, which I love.
This is the Watch I was looking for. I like the design and the appearance. the straight forward face is very easy to read even in low light. It keeps good time. I very much enjoy a traditional tool watch.
The A-15 pilot watch is beautiful. Customer service also above and beyond. I bought a great product with a legacy name on it.
