BulovaMen's Marine Star 'Series B' Stainless Steel 3-Hand Calendar Quartz Watch, Black Dial Style: 98B203

As someone with a collection of both quartz and mechanical watches, I’m always on the lookout for pieces that stand out in design and comfort, and the Bulova Marine Star delivers on both fronts.What immediately caught my eye is the styling. It sets itself apart from other dive-style watches with its recessed rectangular indices, reminiscent of the Tudor Pelagos, offering a subtle depth and dimensionality not typically found at this price point. It gives the dial a more refined and architectural feel that elevates the look beyond standard dive watch design.Once sized, the Marine Star fits perfectly and wears exceptionally well balanced on the wrist. It is not too heavy or bulky, just the right weight for all-day wear. It has that grab-and-go ease of a quartz paired with the wrist presence of something much more expensive.The only minor drawback is typical of many quartz watches: the seconds hand doesn’t consistently hit all the indices. It’s a bit disappointing, especially considering that less expensive quartz models from Citizen and Casio often nail this detail. That said, it’s only really noticeable if you’re specifically looking for it. For everyday use, just glancing at the time, it’s a complete non-issue.All in all, this is a well-designed, stylish, and comfortable watch that I’m happy to add to my rotation. It will definitely see regular wear. If you’re looking for a sharp-looking quartz with unique styling and solid build quality, the Bulova Marine Star is a great choice. Very satisfied.

I have a hard time taking this watch off my wrist! First off, it's incredibly beautiful, with a simple, classy design, and also quite comfortable. However, what I like the most in this watch is its accuracy. As it fits all Bulova quartz watches, it's reliable, accurate and well balanced on one's wrist. Even though it's a bit on the large and hefty side, it becomes part of your body after a while. Easy to wear, read, enjoy, has the looks of a Submariner or a Tudor Pelagos (I've been told) and I dare say performs just as well for a small fraction of the price.

GREAT LOOKING WATCH-HE LOVED IT!

This watch is awesome! I can’t stop looking at it. I don’t ever have to take it off. It looks good at work, it doesn’t look out of place at the gym, and I don’t have to worry about taking it off when I jump in the pool or beach. I am going to look out for when this one dips in price again and buy another one to have as a backup.

Beautiful watch, I like it better than my tag aqua racer. The band is good, the bezel turns easily. The face is simple and elegant. Could not hope for anything better.

Good quality and a great price. I'm pleased with my purchase.

Really nice watch!

Perfect watch but the problems are in the band!1 For my wrist at least, I need a half link and the simply don't exist for this watch.2 It's elegant, and versatile but you can't change out the band. I'd bet this things band weighs 1 pound. I don't notice I'm wearing it about 40% of the time but I have watches that I forget I have them on until I need them and I wish this did that. It would be nice to be able to change out the band to leather or nato but no dice.Overall the watch itself is great, I'm keeping it! I just think I'll find something I like better pretty soon and it's all the bands fault.
