Paint is starting to come off bezel and condensation is appearing behind the crystal. Not sure how long this watch will last
The only bad thing is when received the bulova box itself looked dinged up on the corners and on the outside and inside on the watch it was dusty like it had been sitting on a shelf too long so when my husband opened it I was a really embarrassed that it was dirty
It was a gift from my sister an I love the looks it is a wonderful watch.
A lifetime digital watch user, I like when a watch can fill many roles. The convenience has spoiled me. Casio did a good job in the 20 dollar range but the retro chrome plated plastic cases would not hold up for more than 5 years with my heavy use. So after buying the fifth one of those I was ready for something with more build quality. Ever since the Big Precisionist Icon came out, I really liked that amount of features but it was missing the rotating bezel. It didn't occur to me to check out the Marine Stars but as soon as I saw the type C, I knew that was the one I was looking for. I get the stopwatch, metal band, rotating bezel for less strict timing, date window, and really nice bright lume that is very readable from dusk till dawn. It would be neat if the bezel had some lume as well but I do not dive and have no plans to do so, so it would be lost on me anyway. So it has exactly what I was looking for in my daily toolwatch. For the money I have not found anything comprable. Luckily I have enough wrist to make it look normal sized.
