    The rounded lugs, Arabic numerals with a slight serif, and those sculpted reverse spearhead hands work so well together to give this timepiece a unique elegance.

    Got the gold one for $650. At the price it seems reasonable, I would never pay top whack for a basic Sellita movement.

    I got the watch today, it's the gold color bezel and hands, white dial and brown alligator leather strap version, number 25/350, it was the last one on galaxus for sale, probably one of the last pieces available in Europe and maybe the world , with a little discount, what can I say,
    in one word : fantastic !
    I knew it will not be a disappointment, and I was right, one of the best purchases I ever made. Chapeau to the Designers from New York, the Swiss team who made it and the Bulova / Citizen group company for making it possible . I hope Bulova will keep making such special and limited edition watches from time to time, I will be there to buy them, and tomorrow I will get my bulova computron 🧐👍

    Thanks for keeping the closed captions. I have my father's 1953 Bulova automatic. Rode motor cycles, played golf and just wore it anywhere. Still works. My new Hamiltons say I should not play golf with them. So I can wear them when I am watching watch videos on you tube.

      @@Rch_P yeah, agree I get it’s using a nice sellita movement. But the brand doesn’t have that much power behind it and for $1,000 even some new watches from some respected Swiss brands enter the conversation. I would consider a Tissot or certina before one of these Bulovas

  • @Ercan-fc2oq
    @Ercan-fc2oq 8 місяців тому +2

    The strap is made with alligator leather, the movement is a good quality Swiss movement, the design on the backside is kinda special, the overall design is cool and stylish , the case size of 38mm is perfect, and on the top it's a limited edition for each version. You can't go wrong with that.

    Great review! It would be so amazing if Bulova did an everyday watch with 100m water resistance, within 40mm case size, with their smooth sweeping precisionist movement! And Teddy can you please review the new Tissot PRX Powermatic 80? Would love to hear your take on it!

    Bulova are very like constanin weisz. Within their range the watches can be Chinese Swiss, in the case of bulova Germany in the case if weisz. Are they budget or entry level into quality watches as they have chronos in the low hundreds, in the case of weisz very low hundreds, with Chinese movements but also 3k price tag with Swiss movements. I recently bought the bulova sutton rectangle faced with gold numbers and fork logo with Japan movement for £200 and a constantin weisz Ltd edition chrono, Blue face red filled markers, for £130 with at st19 movement, even ebay sugess cost more than that. I think lack on transparency harms these brand or at least holds them back. Here's a question for bulova. Where does the model names come from like bretton and sutton as no where in packaging or the watch or papers is the name mentioned, rather like seikos frozen margarita or any of the cocktail watches.

    I truly don't understand why companies continue to bastardize and really mess up Aesthetics of nice watches by putting in date Windows as an afterthought. Just because the movement has a date doesn't mean you have to use it. And if you do use it why don't you make it actually tasteful put it in the right position which is the 6:00 color match it in at least try to frame it or something just doing a cheap ugly cut out small with a white window that does not match the watch at all is really a waste

    I recently bought a Joseph Bulova Limited edition Commodore swiss movement. However, when I registered the watch I noticed the Serial Number is as follows: "CXXXXXXX" Furthermore, On the back it doesn't say "Limited Edition" and no Limited edition Number out of 350 pieces. Does anyone know why is the watch like that?
    Thanks!!

      @@archie1554 HI! I paid for it retail price which was $1,200 or $1,300. I actually contacted Bulova Customer Service sent them pictures of front and back of the piece and they answered saying that the watch is Authentic however it doesn't have a serial number because it was the watch that was used in showrooms when it was first released. I was just happy to know that it is authentic and the reason why it had no Serial Number.
