Marine Star
Series C
An incredibly bold design, this men’s Bulova Marine Star Precisionist sport watch pushes the limits with Bulova’s cutting edge technology and a strikingly modern case. Defined by a rugged, angular profile, the 43mm stainless steel case features brushed facets and polished accents, with a unidirectional timing bezel with a ceramic insert, a sapphire crystal, and a screw-down crown ensuring 200m water resistance. The vibrant yellow dial takes its inspiration from the undulating crests of the ocean, with a wave pattern accented by applied hour markers and a bold handset, all featuring luminescent material for unrivaled legibility in all conditions. A date window is positioned at 3 o’clock, while the red-tipped seconds hand sweeps smoothly around the dial thanks to Bulova’s proprietary Precisionist movement, a revolutionary 8-jewel quartz mechanism vibrating at a remarkable 262kHz and accurate to seconds per year with increased resistance to temperature changes. Paired with a durable silicone strap with a pin buckle closure, this men’s Bulova timepiece is equipped to handle everything from the office to the ocean.

Reviews
I have had this watch for almost a week and so far I haven’t lost a single second. The Precisionist movement is living up to its reputation. The Yellow dial with wave pattern is very beautiful to look at and watch the smooth sweep second hand is mesmerizing to watch. I look forward to wearing this watch everyday for the foreseeable future.
Smooth sweep of second hand, very accurate time, good looks and expected function of a fine watch makes this good value. Good Bumblebee colors
Excellent Watch
I really like this watch. The sweeping second hand was one of the features (along with the water resistance) I was looking for, and this watch does not disappoint. I've had this yellow Marine Star for over a week now and it still is right on with our atomic clock on the wall. Love it!
smooth like mechanical, accurate like quartz
Smooth sweeping seconds hand, I like mechanical, but horology is about precision, and this one is hard to beat. People rely on cell phone and satellite time, this keeps the time, and a battery change on quartz is like an oil change or service on a mechanical, just much less time in the shop.
