How to Use the Elapsed Time Bezel
If your watch is equipped with a rotating outer dial with one-minute graduations, this can be used in various ways to check elapsed time. For example if you're diving and have a 30-minute air supply, you can set the outer ring so that the bezel's starting point is in line with the minute hand when you first submerge. The minute hand will then indicate on the outer ring the length of time that you've been under water and when you should safely begin to resurface.

This review is from: Bulova Men's 98H39 Marine Star Chronograph Watch (Watch) While this watch is not a Tag or an Omega, since I started wearing it in December, I've received tons of compliments on its respectable appearance unlike my buddy who dropped 2k on a much more expensive watch. The hands and dial glow in the dark which makes it easy to read in low light (unless the face has been covered by your sleeve). Chronograph and Tachymeter work well, watch is built solidly and I have absolutely no regrets about this purchase. 2 of 3 people found the following review helpful: Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?) This review is from: Bulova Men's 98H39 Marine Star Chronograph Watch (Watch) I am very pleased with my new Bulova Marine Star chronograph. It is a beautiful and detailed watch and, as always, Amazon Prime delivered as promised and on time. Top quality watch and top quality company. By AaronPaul (Minneapolis, MN USA) - See all my reviews This review is from: Bulova Men's 98H39 Marine Star Chronograph Watch (Watch) This is a great looking watch and seems to be very reliable. It's large and heavy and looks pretty classy. I wasn't thrilled with the strap, however. Felt really stiff and a little cheap. Plus I thought the white stitching was a little busy on an already flashy piece. I replaced it with a high quality croc glossy strap and think it looks much better. Hopefully the "gold" finish holds up in the long run. |
