It's so hard today to find a watch just simply a watch. I had several different brands of watches over the years. Most of them didn't last very long. I admit that I'm tough on watches. Usually when you buy a high quality watch you get stuck with features that you don't need or want. Having served in the military for a few years I need a good watch that's durable and accurate that doesn't use batteries. I have a Bulova that my wife gave me for my Birthday a few years ago and it's great but it uses batteries. I have high hopes for this watch.
I like the looks and feel of the timepiece but I am disappointed in what I perceive is its inability to "wind itself" much more than 24 hours, hardly the "automatic" feature I was expecting. It holds its time well, I know that because I've been pacing it alongside my battery powered 15-year-old Timex. I wind the Bulova upon rising each day to make sure it is always functioning.
The Bulova Men Military Hack watch has a sleek design, but the face might feel small on larger wrists. The 40mm size would be preferred, 38mm may be a bit misleading. Additionally, the slim belt could be a preference concern; some may appreciate it, while others might prefer a larger one for a bolder look. Overall, it's a stylish piece, but consider sizing preferences before purchasing.
