I have been in the jewelry business for 19 years and am an avid collector of fine timepieces. Not being extremely familiar with Bulova I became interested in purchasing one after a training session for work. The quality and prices are fantastic. I am very happy with my VWI automatic Hack watch and I really like knowing that a company like Bulova stands behind our veterans and provides them with a useful skill after leaving the service.
I purchased this watch as my fourth Bulova, but this was a gift for my son. He has just graduated and has committed to the USMC. His ship date is Oct 11, 2021 and his squad of recruits all want this watch now.
Excellent basic military watch however the illuminating dial markers and hands illumination level was low. In pitch black after exposure to bright light the numbers,hands and markers were dim.
