What a great watch for any collector! I have many watches in my collection, but this one has risen to the top of my list. My automatic watches are great, but I now prefer a quartz powered watch for ease of use. The sweep second hand is "entertaining" to watch and smoother than any of my other watches. Plus, the fact this watch is so accurate...+ / - 10 seconds a year. The only negative comment (and one shared by others) is the leather band is hard and uncomfortable and will be changed soon. If you're on the fence about this quartz movement...don't be! I'll be buying another one of these for my collection! Read more
The media could not be loaded. This watch punch above it's class. Nice looking dail and the precisionist movement is mesmerizing to look at. Classy look, I wear it almost daily and it could be only a dress wear but for some reason it goes well with everyday clothes. I changed the band but went back to the leather one because I love the look it has. Great watch at a great price from Bulova. Read more
I am very impressed with this watch, particularly at this price point. It looks and feels far more expensive than it is, and its accuracy (it has not lost or gained one second in the week I have been testing it) is amazing. The smooth movement of the sweep second hand is quite impressive. Some reviewers have criticized the leather band, which I think looks fine. It is very stiff, however, but this will pass with use. Overall, this beautiful piece appears to be a world class bargain. Read more
Amazing design, I love it. Very happy with it. It is very light and movement looks like an automatic one. Read more
This watch checks all but one box, and it can easily be remedied with an aftermarket solution. I'll get back to that shortcoming shortly, because I don't want to take away from the positives. First, this watch was NOT a previously handled watch that was sold as "new", by Amazon, which has happened to me more often than I'd like. The movement alone is what makes this watch attractive, at least for me, and I assume many others like myself. The clean sweeping motion of the seconds hand, thanks to the precision quarts movement, is captivating and downright mesmerizing. As someone who owns mechanical watches, they can't compete with the 16 beats a second, clean sweeping, seconds hand. This we be one of my daily worn watches for sure, BUT you'll probably want to replace your watchband for an aftermarket solution. I've paired mine with a Barton strap, as it is a quality strap at a decent price, AND is way more comfortable than the cheap feeling "leather strap" paired to this watch. The factory watch strap feels cheap and as if it didn't belong on this otherwise premium Bulova watch. Overall, I think anyone who purchases this watch will be happy, but be prepared to swap out your straps as soon as you get the watch and swapping your CR2016 watch batteries every two or so years thanks to that quarts movement.

Very beautiful watch. It doesn't keep as accurate time as some of the marketing materials (and people online) say.. it's ok-ish for a quartz. The real star of the show is the sweeping seconds hand. It is great to look at. Poor water resistance, but it's not that kind of watch. Meh leather strap, I bought a mesh bracelet, looks stunning. Only major downside is, I don't think they make this movement any more, so when it runs out, you might be SOL... won't take off star for that though. Read more
The Bulova Precisionist lives up to its reputation for extremely smooth and accurate timekeeping with a quartz movement that vibrates at a higher frequency than standard quartz, giving the second hand a fluid sweep that looks almost mechanical while keeping time more precisely than most watches in its class. The build quality feels substantial: solid case, clear crystal, and a dial with good legibility under varied lighting, and features like date windows or chronograph functions are well integrated without clutter. It wears comfortably and projects a sense of refinement without being overstated, and overall it delivers a compelling mix of precision, reliability, and everyday durability that makes it feel worth its price for anyone who values accuracy and distinctive motion in a quartz watch.
