The 96B251 comes with a leather and a nylon strap and looks great on both. Perhaps more importantly, it feels good on the wrist. The watch features the HPQ NP20 movement that also powers the 98A285 50th Anniversary Limited Edition that I've owned since 2021; I've set that watch once when it arrived, and it is still exact compared to time.gov. Bought directly from Bulova around Thanksgiving at a discount. I was considering an automatic, but service on a Moonwatch is more expensive than my new Lunar Pilot. It's a no-brainer: buy it!
Just got for Christmas and I absolutely love it! The history and the function. Looks are superb.
Heavyweight watch, solid construction, excellent design with an unparalleled history.
While researching another "moon" watch, I came across the history of this watch. Once I read the history and some reviews, I was sold. I love it and is my go to work watch.
