My wife bought this time piece for me for my birthday, two years ago, and I have to say that this is one elegant looking watch. I get numerous compliments on it every time I wear it; certainly makes the outfit. This piece is worth every single dollar.

Epic. Love this watch. Better than in the pics. Looks great loose but even better snug. Maybe not Bulova's top tier but beautiful in and of its own.

I agree with myself in that I should be wearing this watch. I have to post pics... the lighting affects the look, a jeweler's light washes it out. It is gorgeous in natural light. Got a kit and sized it snug so as to keep the drip factor contained. It just drips and drips and drips....

Just bought this watch n best money spent great watch would high recommend
First expensive watch investment. Beautiful. Absolutely priceless to own something like this. The details, shapes used, and countless other qualities make this watch one to get attached to, at least for me since I just started buying quality timepieces. Love it
Great
Great product
Amazing
I live this watch, I was expecting for it a while but I'm very happy with my watch.
Plenty of sparkle
Amazing watch, no battery needed ever. 3 year warranty and one more year extra if you register it on the website. Plenty of complements daily. Purchased at the Bulova website and got the discount. This watch is worth every penny spent.
