Worthless for Navigation - or Anything Else

I bought this watch just before Christmas and wished I had not spent the money on it. Unfortunately, the watch does not keep time. In my particular case, the watch I now own gains between 60 and 120 seconds per day. My disappointment arises from the fact that I will need to return it for service. To confirm this review, the serial number of the watch I now own is 182K02903 mand was purchased through Kay Jewelers in Lake Havasu City, AZ. Don't waste your time with this watch.

Bulova Respuesta We are sorry to hear about the issue with your A-15 Pilot timepiece. It is unusual for this to occur as this watch is designed with a 21-jewel automatic movement that keeps time accurately when fully wound. Your satisfaction is important to us. We will contact you via email to provide solutions.

Great Watch, poor lume

Got gifted this watch over a year ago and while it does keep good time, the one thing I can't get over is just how poor the lume is. The watch is great, if you are a history fan, this is a great piece, and it feels solid. But if lume is important to you, this is not the one to get, though I doubt that would be the primary reason to purchase this watch. Overall, I love the watch but the lume is a huge disappointment.

poor accuracy

Even for a mechanical (automatic) movement, this one is particularly inaccurate, gaining about eight seconds in three or four days, after having been worn or kept on a winder, at all times, and never wound manually.

Great Watch - Terrible Lume

Terrific vintage look tool watch that is let down by poor lume and perhaps its water resistance. Watch looks great. Although a bit larger in size, it wears great - lugs slope down so the lug to lug is not over bearing. Combination of brushed and polished case sides adds visual interest. I really like the hands - unique and vintage and cool. The dial is a bit busy but is really easy to see the time. The miyota movement rotor is a touch loud but I rarely hear it throughout the day and the movement itself is keeping excellent time for an automatic - - after 5 days of wear, it is about 15 seconds fast. This is COSC level accuracy out of a relatively inexpensive Japanese movement. The Hour and Elapsed Time functions are very handy complications and make the watch an invaluable tool for keeping track of a second time zone and tracking time for baking or working out. A real sapphire crystal with AR is another nice addition. The strap is decent, but my 7 inch wrist would like one more hole as I like to wear it tight. I will likely end up replacing it with a vintage look leather strap. If the watch has a failure, it is the lume. If you hit it for a minute with a phone light, it will stay dimly viewable for probably five hours in a pitch black room. 6-7 hours and you can't see it. Finally, it would be nice if the water resistance were slightly better. Overall, I love the watch. Lume aside, it's a great watch I enjoy wearing.
