Bulova Precisionist Claremont 96B127 pictorial....

Recommended Posts

houndoggie

I purchased this from Macy's this weekend for 30% off plus $50 gift card rebate. After trying

 

on several styles, I found this black Claremont to be the most pleasing size and the best

 

looking. After swapping the black faux croc strap with a sportier Bradystrap sailcloth, I took

 

these pictures. The movement is fun to watch as the second hand purrs around the dial, smooth

 

as silk. Accuracy seems to be dead on. Bulova did a nice job on the dial textures and

 

layers, making the watch look more expensive than it was. The buckle and crown are nicely

 

machined as well. Check out the details on the hands and how finely lined the middle portion

 

is. Even the curved crystal looks good, a point I was concerned with before buying it.

I've seen this and the sports diver watch at our local Kay Jewelers in the Wyoming Valley Mall, here in NEPA. It IS fun -- and fascinating -- to watch that seconds hand do its sweep. I'm thinking about doing some serious saving to acquire this technological wonder. Beautiful watch, man!!

I'm diggin' it HD!

 

Love the strap as well.

 

Such a cool movement - I'm loking forward to seeing the chrono and perpetual calendar movements they've got in development.

Great looking watch! Hope it's more reliable than the last Bulova I owned, though... :lol: (I'm sure it will be - I was just unlucky...)

 

 

@AT: Good to see ya mate - you've been missed!

Thanks HD. I wouldn't have a problem if that little movement found it's way into a few reps.
