The watch itself is gorgeous as you can see and it plays out well in person. Lots of compliments on this thing. I'm giving it four stars because I'm not a fan of the band. I'll probably replace it. The band in the photos appears to be charcoal gray, but in person it's a medium gray. I personally think this watch should have a black band. I also full-on dislike the clasp. It's just extra bulk on your wrist and rather uncomfortable.
Excellent watch. Black textured dial, classic small seconds, use of steel and gold, a fine vintage look, plus interesting. The only issue is the clasp. I agree with other reviews that the double fold deployment isn’t comfortable and hard to get a good fit. Also, a watch of this ‘40s - ‘50s look would have a pin buckle. Would appreciate if I can buy an appropriate Bulova logo pin buckle for it. Please let me know. Thanks.
I fell for this watch the moment I saw it. Thankfully, Bulova caught a hint and decided to create a watch with a throwback and vintage look. I love it! My father would have loved it, too. My only complaint about the watch is the band. I'm not a big fan of the clasp type band. A traditional leather with a buckle would have been better. The band it has doesn't allow me the fit I want. I can't tighten it enough for it to feel secure on my wrist. If you have a traditional buckle band with the Bulova logo that complements this watch, please let me know. I'll happily swap it out. Still, I love this watch and when your other 'Sinatra' watches are released, I already know which one I'm buying. Can't wait. PS This is my 13th Bulova watch. What can I say, your name inspires trust.
