I have had my Mil-Sub for several months now and couldn’t be happier. It stands alone from my 15 or so other watches. I bought both versions and the Swiss version is by far the superior hooves and worth the extra investment. A lot of reviews I watched and read said the bracelet was to small ant felt off. Well I disagree it is a historically accurate representation of the originals. The quality of the strap is my favorite part when comparing the Swiss vs. Non. This would be a great add to anyone’s collection no matter if you went Swiss or not but for me it’s Swiss all the way!
Great watch. Easy wearing. Super comfortable with the nylon strap.
There has been some mixed reviews for the Bulova Mil-Ships Limited Edition. I’m a happy owner of this version and keep getting positive comments and questions as this has become my favorite to wear. Among many of my watches, this is maybe the most interesting one to wear given the 16mm strap (I’m mostly wearing a 1965 NAM original strap which I found more interesting than the black one supplied, but the black one being true to the time, works well also). I’m not a fan of very commercialized watches and the Limited Edition offers something else. The Sellita SW200 movement with a 41h power reserve, has turned out much better than expected with less than daily accuracy of less than +/- 5 seconds. All in all, if you want a truly unique watch, go for the Limited Version (I would not consider the unlimited one with the Miyota 82S0 movement) which you can pick up at discounted prices as long as inventory is there.
