I got this as a present for my birthday andi couldn't have asked for a more beautiful or thoughtful gift.
Beautiful... Love the looks and my wife got it for my birthday. She loves it just as much. This will be the second Bulova I have gotten as a birthday gift.
A perfect look to me, a balance of class, ruggedness, and technology while not screaming "pretentious guy alert". And the back brings in a small taste of steampunk, I like that too. So I love the look but I hope they make a leather band for it eventually. The summer heat and rubber material are not the best combination for me. Also the band has two rubber loops that hold the excess length of band close to the wrist and they are a PAIN to slide into place. A major disappointment in the design is devoting two of the three smaller dials exclusively to the stopwatch function. A date, or moon, or tide, or another time zone dial would be more practical and fun for me.
