Marine Star Model 98B350

I originally ordered this watch from Amazon, two years ago. After I was sent an unbranded Bulova knock-off, I returned it. Later, I received a rather nasty email from customer service. Amazon Customer Service didn't like the fact I called it a knock-off and threatened to pull the returned payment back out of my account. Needless to say, I was rather soured on this watch. However, I still really loved the looks of it. It's now 2022. I decided to order it directly from Bulova. I am glad that I did. It's absolutely beautiful. The red dial on the gunmetal gray is stunning. All of the buttons and dials are smooth as silk. Thank you, Bulova. I'll be ordering from you in the future.

Perfect for me

I recently moved my sailboat from New Orleans to Corpus Christi down the intracoastal waterway. it was a fairly dangerous and stressful trip at times with some mechanical, weather, and navigation challenges - nine days aboard. I had promised myself a nice but not extravagant marine style watch as a reward and birthday present for making the trip and this ended up being my selection. I really like that it is not like a high-end sailing watch knock-off look - first, that's not me and cannot afford, but second, that look is cliché and this watch breaks out of that stereotype big time. I shopped a lot.

My go-to watch!

I LOVE this watch! The subdued battleship gray finish, blood red like you see on no other watch, that Semper Fi look. Not too fancy or expensive to worry about for everyday wear but it's cool and classy and performs well. Everything I want in a watch with none of the fluff.. Perfect size for an average wrist and what can I say... The chicks dig it.
