Keeps good time. Accurate to within seconds of my cell phone and Regulator wall clock. Cloth band is very comfortable, but a bit long for my wrist, so I just fold the excess band back under the 2nd sliding strap holder.

I love it for everyday wear, non vwi was cool too, but went with this one.
Bought this watch through a certified reseller and i am happy with the purchase. 38mm makes for a perfect everyday watch.
Really loving this 38mm field watch. Love that it harks back to the A-11 watch issued in WW2 by Bulova. My grandfather was at D-day so this is small way to help remember him. Beautiful domed crystal. Movement timing is quite good, better than the spec suggests. The single position crown is really satisfying to use and of course it's awesome that it hacks. Only complaint is the strap. I needed to add two holes, which made it fray, so I'll need to replace it with a NATO. Would love if Bulova included the non-VWI black leather nato strap too.
This is a great watch! I like how the watch is made and the readability of the dial. I'm new to mechanical watches and this seems to be a good entry level watch for someone like myself. It's nice that 10% of the purchase goes towards the Veteran Watchmaker Initiative. The only issue i have was the watch strap was a little big for me, but my wrist is 5.75" so I feel this complaint is me being an exception.
Looks as good or better than $1000 feild watches. Love it.
I have not worn this watch enough to write a realistic review, however I was disappointed as it seemed as though the watch I bought was on sale for the week prior to my purchase, it went off of that sale when I purchased my watch and was then back on sale the day after I made my purchase of the watch. Due to this irregularity I could not in good faith recommend having to deal with such irregularities to any of my friends.
I love this watch but it came with no user instructions. There was a note indicating that there was setting instructions within the pamphlet but, there was only a note about where to go on the website to download a pdf file for user instructions. DUH!!!! Why not put the instructions in the box???? I received the watch and wanted to wear it that day. High marks for the watch and low marks for the company.
