Before I buy this I need to research the movement... someone said it doesn't Hack, which tells me its movement is on the cheap side. Watch Brands should be aware that when they are making a re-issue of a vintage watch they are basically marketing to watch enthusiasts, who are all about the details, e.g. what is the movement? We also have a deep value knowledge of comparatives based on these details.
I’ve known about this watch for sometime now, and after seeing one sitting in a case at Macy’s I couldn’t resist checking it out, and was in love. What kept me from picking one up earlier was reading the reviews as some here mentioned the movement doesn’t hack which is false, clearly they don’t own the Oceanographer Devil Diver. It’s a Miyota 821D which has a stop seconds and beats at a smooth 21,600BPH with 42hrs reserve of power. Well done Bulova, the Oceanographer is a blast!
The dial is bright and well done illuminated. Makes reading it in low light easy.
Beautifully crafted watch … love it. Very conscious of it while I’m wearing it … in a good way . Wish the calendar numerals were a bit larger though …
