Most popular Bulova Men’s 96A120 BVA Series Dual Aperture Dial Watch

There is no question that when it has came down to watches, many people have often overlooked automatic watches than quartz battery watches for over 20 years. But there are those that have made simple, and delightful automatics for the people. That has been the case with Bulova, and their Men’s BVA Dual Aperture Watch. This watch is very easy to setup, and a snap to wear for any man on the go. But this is also one of the few austomatic watches that doesn’t show the over-designed skeletal face on the watch. That design has gotten to be so tiring. This watch shows a simple second hand, and a 24-hour subdial that is easy to read and understand. It also shows itself brilliantly in a stainless steel bezel and leather strap that can easily be adjusted with a snap, and a push of the button. I definitely recommend this watch for any gentleman whom trusts Bulova watches, and is looking for a automatic watch, that is both classy and dressy at the same time.

HOT:Citizen Men’s NH6931-06E 1000 Meter Professional Diver Automatic Watch

Under the product specification chart it says that this watch movement is Japanese – quartz. That is wrong; the movement is automatic and clearly says on the watchs’ face. I have this watch for 5 years now. Still works great. The only downside is that the watch stops working shortly after you take it off your wrist. I have many automatic watches and this one is the one that dies first.

I received this watch through Amazon and received outstanding service. There is an additional strap extension included for folks that have very large wrists. I am very happy with this purchase.

I sold off 4 watches to get one of these. I am glad I did. I have worn this every day since I got it, so it is a watch ‘rotation killer’.

If you like big dive watches, but hate the weight of SS watches, this is your watch. The Ti makes it very wearable, and the Duratect coating gives it a satiny, almost SS look to it, and it is tough as nails to boot. Get a set of Suspa or Walt’s strap adapters and you can wear it on the strap of your choice, although the stock rubber strap is fine, too. Mine is averaging about +4 sec/day when worn which is within COSC specs. So who needs an expensive Omega or Rolex for an accurate automatic?

I also love the cool blue lume that is very strong on this watch, and it lasts all night. It is still readable when the morning alarm goes off.

I also like the fact that the bezel can be removed without tools or a watchmaker to clean under it, and to lubricate it. I put some silicone grease on mine and the bezel action is smooth as butta..

This is a well thought out and original design from Citizen. If I were a professional diver, this is the watch I would trust.

Most popular Fossil Men’s FS4487 Black Silicone Bracelet Black Analog Dial Chronograph Watch

Had my eyes set on the identical Fossil watch with a black stainless band. After seeing a friends black stainless Movodo get scratched and show the silver color through, I decided to try on the silicone version. It made the watch so much lighter! I’m much more likely to wear it now! The band has a much more matte finish, which I think is much more masculine than shiny metal (ceramic or black stainless). Wish it was available with more colors as the details in the chronograph, I would have preferred red over blue.

Pros:
Lighter
Matte finish
Hard to scratch the band
Cheap to replace the band

Cons:
A little more sweat builds up behind the band
Cheaper feeling if you touch it
Not sure how long a silicone band lasts

At first I thought the watch would have been too big for my wrist (as they are a bit thin) but it works out quite nicely. The silicone band is great for sporting applications (sweat), while still maintaining its bold black style to the overall finish of class. The white tip of the clock hands look really good. Also, the hands of the left and right chronographs are blue, which adds a great touch. I’m quite happy with Fossil brand watches and this one is no different.

I ordered this watch here on Amazon. I love it. Its perfect for my job here in afghanistan as it looks nice with my black and white uniform, and the rubber bank gives it a ruggedness about it. The performance so far is perfect. The only complaints are that they face has gotten slightly scratched and the black dial has worn off a little but in places with the silver showing through. I guess this can be expected as I’ve been wearing this watch everyday for over a year now. I would even consider buying this same watch again in the future when mine is worn out.
