BulovaMen's Classic Maquina Automatic Open Aperture Watch

This is by far favorite watch. Its the perfect size and can be adjusted to fit any wrist. This is my second Bulova and i love them both. I get a lot of comments about how nice or flashy it looks. Its flashy but still is subtle and says you are luxury and wealthy with ought saying too much. I would 100% recommend this watch to any man starting out his watch collection.

The watch is large but wears really well on my wrist which is ~7 1/2 inches. I had to remove 4 links to get it to fit. It is stunning to look at and the gunmetal is perfect. I wound the watch and audited the accuracy and it was fast by 7 seconds over the course of 24 hours with 12 hours on the wrist. The luminosity of the dial at night works well enough for me but some may like it brighter. The second hand sweep has a jitter but I find that to be a signature for mechanical movements and that brings a sense of nostalgia to it. I hope others can purchase it with the same experience.

Spectacular watch. Really good reflective glass. The weight of the watch is nice, brilliant shine on the bracelet . Beautiful dial,Very cool to watch the movement . I haven’t seen a watch like this one

I bought is watch on an impulse and don’t regret it one bit. I love the way it looks and feels. The time is always very accurate and I haven’t had any issues with the moment at all. All in all a top notch time piece. I love it and would recommend to any watch collector.

The media could not be loaded. I really like the look of this Classic watch! Even the name oozes class: Bulova Classic Maquina Rose. I’m not here to talk about the name though. I wanted a mechanical watch, good looking, that I can use as an every day watch, and one that could be dressed up a bit. I think most would agree that this watch handles both aspects. Plus it’s skeletonized, so it’s cool looking at some of the watches movement. I like this watch a lot, and hope it lasts me a long time!

Beautiful timepiece at a great price. The angles are sleek. The movement is hypnotizing. The Minimalistic simplicity of the face is perfectly juxtaposed by the gears behind it. I find watches with too many dials and tick marks to be excessive and gaudy. The combination of matte and polished metal creates a perfect daily driver that can be dressed up or down. I am very satisfied with this purchase. One pro I didn’t see mentioned is the crown placement. Having it off center helps keeping it from pinching you when you flex your wrist. Very big pro if you have small wrists.There are 3 bad reviews at the time which should be ignored. Two don’t understand that a mechanical watch must be wound to keep time, and the third doesn’t realize you can manually wind it to keep it ticking overnight if your arm movements during the day were inadequate.There are a few valid complaints, but they are by no means deal-breakers. The hands are a little hard to find sometimes, but you’ll easily get used to looking for the glow-in-the-dark white lines. The second hand seems to move erratically at times, but overall keeps time well. A date dial would be nice, but I am not a fan of having to manually set the date after non-31-day months, and you’ll be hard pressed to find a mechanical watch with a perpetual calendar at this price point.

Fantastic watch and at least an equal to my Tag Hauer Kirium SportI had serious reservations about any watch other than one I spent over 1k for. I worried that I would miss some feature or rugged build if I spent lessI was an idiot. This watch was sub 300 and is an excellent time piece!The mechanical complications are cool. The glass face is sapphire crystal so it is extremely scratch proof, and the material for the casing is solid block and very sturdy.The clasp is double lock and looks magnificent!The face is big but not comically huge like some time pieces. I like some size but I do not need a wrist appliance!Fit and finish are excellent!It is waterproof and I have been snorkeling with no issues.Finally the face is easy to read and the flow in the dark accents register quickly to the eye although it does not last all night

Totally Worth it!If you are thinking to buy this watch. Go for it. I really liked it. Not much heavy.
