This watch is great. It doesn't have a million functions or bells and whistles, but is accurate, easy to read in both light and dark, and is very sturdy. It's not what I would call heavy or bulky, but doesn't feel like it's made out of cheap materials either. I also enjoy the leather strap since it doesn't let the watch slide around on my wrist like other bands do. I picked the Marine Star watch because it is a nice watch that I could wear with a suit or with a t-shirt and jeans. The orange face (which I wasn't sure I'd like at first) is actually the best part. Since my suits are all very conservative, this is a nice accent that's more contemporary. Another plus is that the hands glow quite brightly in the dark. I may not be much of a diver, but other watches I've had don't have hands that glow as brightly in the dark.
I don't have any negative assessments to offer other than maybe the leather strap is still a little stiff, but I imagine that will work itself out in a few days. If you're OK with a watch with an orange face and don't need all the stuff chronographs have, I'd recommend it.

This is the second of two watches recently purchased through Amazon. Both watches were Bulova and the are both spectacular watches. The keep impecable time and look great for dress or casual wear.

This watch looks fantastic. It keeps good time and is comfy to wear.
It is a standout watch.

This is the first watch I bought for myself. I was looking for something that was unique and the orange dial colour provided that for me as it is something you don't see everyday. The watch keeps good time and is not heavy at all. It glows magnificently in the dark. I am not a diver so I cannot comment on the 200 m water resistant depth. I did take a shower with the watch just to test the water resistance and again no problems arised from this action. All in all, I recommend without any reservations.

Great looking "weekend" watch. Arrived in new mint condition in the mfg box with instruction booklet. Selected the normal free shipping and although it took the full 5 days I got it within the time frame I specified. I've had it just over a month and it keeps great time.

The watch is really nice. It was a Christmas gift for my husband and he really likes it. His favorite feature is that you have to unscrew the little turn-y thing to change the time, which is good so it prevents you from changing it accidentally. The quality is great, both the watch and the leather band. We especially love the orange face, which perfectly matches the color of his car (GTI Fahrenheit).
