Don't get me wrong, this is a beautiful watch and is a wonderful addition to my collection. A wonderful gift from my wife, but, the disappointing part is that Bulova is supposed to be an American Company. I didn't expect the movement to be Japanese and the band to be Chinese. At over $400.00 for a watch, the band appears to be the same quality as other watches I have that were $150.00 or less. Since this is my first Bulova (I do have an older Caravelle) I guess I expected it to be a higher quality based on the name. I love a good time piece, Besides my wedding ring, its the only jewelry I wear.
Nice watch. Had to have a jeweler size it but nice watch for the money. Wish it came with instructions and list of all features and how all these dials work and what they are all for. Im new to watch collecting so I really don't know.
