I have enjoyed wearing this watch. It is easy to see and is not too large, being I have small wrists. It is so comfortable that I forget that I have it on. It was a gift to me, but after receiving it and wearing it I would have bought one for myself. I like the fact that it isn’t battery operated and is self winding and a classic watch not loaded with a lot of unnecessary extra features. It’s a watch not a computer! Thanks for still making a simple, rugged, well made watch, and not made in China.
The perfect watch for me. I like the size, not bulky for my wrist. I have a small wrist and this fits perfect. Another reason I like it is it is luminous at night. Easy to read dial also. Great watch.
I have had a Bulova watch to wear since 1969. Most were automatics, but I had a space accutron and I currently have the Ultra High frequency large pocket watch. This hack watch is an almost exact copy of the watch I was issued in the Marine Corps. The Benrus I was issued in 1971 failed after 8 weeks, and I was issued a used Bulova from 1961 or 62. That Bulova ran until 1984 and it was a 17 jewel watch. My new one I just purchased is 21 jewel, but keeps perfect time. I set it to the NIST clock on the internet, I just checked it, and after 5 days is still exact to the second. I expect it will be a very great timepiece. Good job Bulova!
The Bulova Men Military Hack watch has a sleek design, but the face might feel small on larger wrists. The 40mm size would be preferred, 38mm may be a bit misleading. Additionally, the slim belt could be a preference concern; some may appreciate it, while others might prefer a larger one for a bolder look. Overall, it's a stylish piece, but consider sizing preferences before purchasing.

Great watch. Being an active duty military member I wanted something with heritage. Apparently quality and durability are not key components. A leather strap replacement will be 75 dollars. Very sad and disappointing. I have not worn this watch through any rough rotations. I'm a chaplain and my job does not have a major physical demand. The watch is great, the strap is trash. IF you do get this watch go with the nylon strap and not the leather.

Great watch
Just want I needed. Works well and well packaged. I highly recommend it.
Great Looking Timepiece
Love the watch and the appropriate NATO band. I especially like the watchface with the red 24HR inner track - it sets the face off from others. Buy one; you’ll love it!
My Hack
Love my new Bulova Military Hack watch I just wish the band was a little bit longer
An excellent time keeper
It's so hard today to find a watch just simply a watch. I had several different brands of watches over the years. Most of them didn't last very long. I admit that I'm tough on watches. Usually when you buy a high quality watch you get stuck with features that you don't need or want. Having served in the military for a few years I need a good watch that's durable and accurate that doesn't use batteries. I have a Bulova that my wife gave me for my Birthday a few years ago and it's great but it uses batteries. I have high hopes for this watch.
