Have been eyeing this beauty for a few weeks. Santa brought it to me this morning... 👍👍👍
Out of all the watches that I have owned, this is my favorite. I've owned watches made by citizen, Seiko, fossil, and other various quality makers. So far Bulova is my favorite by far. This piece turns out to be my most favorite of them all so far.
My first mechanical, and i love watching it run!. Beautiful piece definitely catches the light.
Couldn't be happier with my purchase..............
I bought this a month ago and money well spent absolutely stunning piece when I saw it I instantly fell in love very happy with it :)
Bought this watch today. Color combo looks amazing and being table to see the mechanisms is just beautiful. Excellent watch !
I have 6 other Bulova watches and thia one by far is not what i excepted. Have to continue setting the time and unlike my other watches
Beautiful watch endless power
Seems like alot of people who buy this watch don't understand the automatic features before they buy it. Spring wound driven both manually and by motion never need a battery. AMAZING and beautiful. Only fault is the band is made in China.

Bulova Octava
I never write reviews but this watch is amazing. It is so classy and beautiful, you can't take your eyes off it. It came in the mail very quickly. My husband is a collector and absolutely loves this purchase. It was on sale and would be worth the retail price but we are so fortunate to have received such a great deal.
