The devil's in the details.

This watch touches all aspects that I like about this brand. Their vintage line is amazing and this reissue delivers. The GMT & Diver bezel combination is clever; lume - plenty of it. I ordered a matching bracelet directly from Bulova and it is super comfortable. Definitely a looker and a keeper.

Packaging let me down buts contents are beautiful.

Bulova has done it with this one! This upgrade to the devil diver checks all the boxes for me. 200m wr, FULL lume! The dial and bezel (although not unidrectional) are amazing. The strap has that weave that I like in divers straps. Sapphire crystal and the piece de resistant ; that myota 9075 "flyers GMT". I do have a big wrist but the 40mm case looks pro on me . The cyclops does irk me a Lil but it's forgivable. The polish is a nice finish. 14mm thick with a 45mm lug to lug. I would like a longer strap. Definitely worth the price just glad to catch the sale. Now either ups have serious issues in picking and packing or bulova has a QA issue. But I got my watch it was not what I'm used to. It looked like someone opened my package and repackaged it. Thank goodness the watch wasn't damaged

The perfect vacation watch? Probably.

I saw another bracelet review of this watch, and I can't agree more. It comes on a rubber style strap, which while nice, doesn't fit my style quite as much as a bracelet does. I also have a lume strap, and let me tell you, that sucker will keep you up at night, it's so bright a combination. The dial is fantastic, the movement easy to use, and it wears so well. I enjoy the subtle GMT hand, which blends in better with the dial than the other colorways, which is a consideration for when you just need to tell the time, and not worry about another time zone. It has been my most worn watch of 2024. And will probably be up there for 2025 as well.

Love it woth one change.

This was my first auto watch purchase. I wanted a little of everything. Auto(of course) GMT, divers watch and a classic style. I looked at quite a few and debated for a couple months. This is where I landed and I couldn't be happier except for one minor (personal) complaint. I very quickly tired of the rubber strap. It's very comfortable, don't get me wrong, but after just a few days I found the style clashed somewhat with the classic look of the piece. I've ordered an olive green canvas strap and a mocha brown bund leather strap to try out with it. Other than that, I'm loving everything about this watch.
