Love this watch

Been wanting this watch for a while and I finally pulled the trigger during Black Friday when Bulova had a sitewide 30% off sale. I absolutely love it. The sunburst burgundy dial that fades to black on the perimeter with the applied indices is such a beauty to look at. And let’s not forget about the smooth as butter sweeping seconds hand from the Precisionist movement inside. Something you can only find in a Spring Drive Grand Seiko that costs at least 10x more. One of my favorite watches in the collection that will be sure to see plenty of wrist time as long as I’m alive to wear it.

Jetstar is a Star

This watch is beautiful and one of my preferred after one month ownership. Of course you get the smooth second hand, the magnificent 'burgundi' dial, and the precision. That is how it is advertised after all! A few notes. Battery for the movement is not mentioned in the user manual (it is a CR2016 which is about the diameter of the '8102' caliber). The sapphire has no anti-reflection coating whatsoever and this can give an hazy look (Ok it is a Jetstar hommage after all). Precision was not great the first week and I was concerned. However it has settled to -1.5s for the entire first operation month, and now it seems it will be even better and super stable (not sure why)...

The best a analog quartz watch?

This watch has received quite a bit of attention since its release and its retro style, plus the gorgeous red dial certainly caught my attention. Upon receiving it, I've been very happy with it. From the amazing dial to the unbelievably smooth, sweeping second hand, it has lived up to the hype. The bracelet is also fantastic. It has solid endlinks and quick release springbars. There isn't any micro-adjusment capability though since it has a butterfly clasp. Highly recommended!

Excelllent everyday watch

This watch is stunning! The photos on the website don't truly show how beautiful this watch is in person. My watch arrived in a couple of days. Just as expected, that second hand sweep is simply hypnotizing. My only issue upon arrival: I had to take it to a jewelry shop to get the bracelet adjusted because even though I entered my 7.25" bracelet size while ordering, it arrived way too small and I could barely closed it on my wrist.
