Reviews
Well Done!
I have not worn a watch in many years but felt it was time to as glancing at ones wrist is quicker than picking up ones phone, plus a little 'bling' never hurts. Was shocked at the variety of styles, colors, and prices available! After looking at dozens of styles and manufactures I found Bulova's Marine Star. The styling, quality, and design was what I was looking for. Once it arrived I was impressed with the 'heft', size, and detail of the piece. It looks and feels like a million bucks! I am very glad I chose this timepiece.
A beautifully, well-designed watch
A beautifully, well-designed watch. I’ve already received multiple comments from friends and strangers alike and have encouraged them to buy one. They were all shocked when I told them what I paid and how affordable it is. I own a similar looking Rolex that cost twenty times what I paid for this Bulova watch.
Checked all the Boxes
A lifetime digital watch user, I like when a watch can fill many roles. The convenience has spoiled me. Casio did a good job in the 20 dollar range but the retro chrome plated plastic cases would not hold up for more than 5 years with my heavy use. So after buying the fifth one of those I was ready for something with more build quality. Ever since the Big Precisionist Icon came out, I really liked that amount of features but it was missing the rotating bezel. It didn't occur to me to check out the Marine Stars but as soon as I saw the type C, I knew that was the one I was looking for. I get the stopwatch, metal band, rotating bezel for less strict timing, date window, and really nice bright lume that is very readable from dusk till dawn. It would be neat if the bezel had some lume as well but I do not dive and have no plans to do so, so it would be lost on me anyway. So it has exactly what I was looking for in my daily toolwatch. For the money I have not found anything comprable. Luckily I have enough wrist to make it look normal sized.
