Product Review

Make an impression with this bold and sporty Marine Star chronograph from Bulova. The black guilloche dial features luminous hands and eight genuine diamond hour markers as well as a red-tipped seconds hand and a date display at 4:30. Three silver subdials display small seconds, minutes to sixty, and 24-hour time. The dial is capped with a mineral crystal and framed by a stationary steel bezel. Tapered lugs secure the solid steel case to a ruggedly handsome steel link bracelet made up of brushed and polished pieces. The bracelet fastens securely with a fold over clasp with double push button and safety. This watch features a screw-down caseback and is rated water resistant to 100 meters.

This review is from: Bulova Men's 96D16 Marine Star Diamond Chronograph Watch (Watch)
This watch looks and feels great. It's very well built, all stainless-steel (some parts polished, others just brushed metal) in a beautiful composition. The clasp is very secure yet easy to use. It has a Boluva logo imprinted and the watch really feels secure when it's closed. The weight is perfect, not being too light (I don't like light watches, they seem cheap) but also not hard for an all-day use. It gives you just the perfect balance.

Inside the case the details are amazing! The back is black, but not solid black - it has a beatiful texture. A lot of detais inside are made of metal, like Bulova's logo, the outside part of the pointers and the outlines of the subdials and date displays. These itens shine a lot, what drives everyone's attention to it. By the way, the 8 diamonds just shine great, even better with sunlight, when the light reflected gets a multicolor aspect.

I think it was a great deal, because here in Brazil Bulova's regular watches costs over...Read more

I bought this watch on special sale on Amazon for only $$149....a steal for this watch. When I looked 1 day after ordering, it was already $254. This is very beautiful watch..pictures can;t do justice.

The weight is good...not too heavy. The dial size is very decent..not big for my average size wrist..overall looks killer on wrist.

I'd recommend this watch strongly.

This review is from: Bulova Men's 96D16 Marine Star Diamond Chronograph Watch (Watch)
To start off with this watch is very nice once you open the box. One thing you will realize is that size of the dial is smaller then expected. Plus the dial part already has a few light scratches on it just from one wear. Overall, besides these two issues the watches is great and people really do notice it when you wear it. Looks like a $1k+ watch. The diamonds are not that big and the silver part under it does most of the shining.

Weight is nice not too heavy and not light by any means. Feels solid. Keeps time perfectly as you would expect from a watch like this. If you can buy this watch for $210 right now thats a steal given it MSRP's for $525 which I know regular store fronts ask MSRP. Given I was between a Citizen and the Bulova I'm glad I bought the Bulova since it is a lot more classier and seems better built.

All in all its a great watch and look forward to my next Bulova to add to the collection.
