Review: Bulova 96A102 Commemorative Hack Watch
Having worn this watch for several weeks now, I can straight up just say that it is a great and pleasurable watch to wear. As I said in my initial impressions, part of what drew me to this watch was simply the overall value of it. Good brand, great look and a seconds-sub dial (which one does not see often in this price range) for under $100. How can you go wrong? Well, of course the build quality could be mediocre. That's not the case here; the Bulova is a very nicely built and sturdy watch. Maybe the strap is a piece of garbage? Nope. I love the strap that it came with. It is perfectly styled for the watch, very nicely constructed and extremely comfortable. Umm��maybe it keeps bad time? Once again, no: it is powered by a Japanese quartz (Miyota) and is as reliable as I could ever need. ?Basically, it all comes down to looks, and I love the way it looks.Case: Sandblasted ?A9 Stainless SteelMovement: Miyota Quartz (details unknown)Dial: Black with White IndexLens: Domed AcrylicCase Back:
