Bulova Men's 98C102 Crystal Bracelet Watch

I couldn't wait to receive this watch as I usually keep my watch budget at below or around 100 dollars but I decided to purchase this one because I know Bulova is a high quality line. This particular watch had caught my eye while browsing through other watches because I wanted a distinctive watch but not a 'bling' watch so this seemed to be perfect. I also liked that it was a black all metal watch as I do not like the leather band watches. It was packaged as shown in the pictures on a small printed pillow and in a gray box with black foam on the top cover of the box to protect the face as well as being covered on the top and bottom of the watch to protect the glass and back cover from scratches. The first time I wore it I received numerous compliments on how beautiful it was and a few people thought that the crystals were diamonds which by the way look amazing in the sun. This eye catching watch is one I plan to hold on to forever and wear when ever I can. I am glad that I bought it and would do it again and again. The only reason it didn't get five is because the clasp which I really like how it hides under the watch while remaining comfortable for all day use seems to be a little flimsy and I haven't had a problem with it but I am not sure how it will hold up after years of constant use. I hope this review helps you decide to buy as I was a little weary of spending hundreds on a watch without a single review so if you buy please review as well to help others decide on this watch.UPDATE: Its been two years since I bought the watch and of course the compliments are countless but the other day a guy came in with the exact same watch....of course I asked him where he got it and how much he paid. He said it bought it from a famous maker jewelry store which I won't name to avoid lawsuit and other penalties but it cost him $600. Twice what I paid. Now about the clasp I wear this watch every day and it is still my favorite and the clasp is holding up well and has only come undone when I accidently bump something or when I ran. Otherwise Great Watch so just BUY IT ALREADY!!! ps yes I changed the review from 4 stars to 5

EDIT: Ordered November 23rd, 2012; received Monday Novemeber 26th.....FAST! Paid $275...which you will not find anywhere else which is why I ponied up and made the purchase. Absolutely satisfied with this purchase. Nice weight, nice eye-catching style without being gaudy, easy to setup. I'm sticking with Bulova!I've had my eye on this piece for over a year now. Have found it in stores @ $475-$560 (sometimes even with an "On-Sale" price.For the price being offered on this website, you can NOT beat it. Even online retailers who offer this watch have a backorder status. I'm expecting mine by Friday Nov. 30th, and WILL write an actual review.BIG thanks to those who left great reviews, it let me know that I can trust I will be receiving what is advertised.

I purchased this watch for my husband for our anniversary last October. He has used the watch several times and every time he gets a complement on it. It sure does attract attention. I did not give it a 5 star because he already had to replace the battery it did not last a year. But he is very happy with the quality and is eyeing another Bulova watch. It was definitely worth the money spent.

I bought this for my hubby for fathers days. he saw it at macys for $500 bucks and really liked it. He gets alot of complements on it. The only neg is he waited about 2 weeks to get it fitted and as he wore it, it rubbed against his desk and a little of the black came off. since its been fitted its hasn't rubbed off anymore .

Ordered this as my first "expensive" watch for my collection, saw it every where else for $500 and up, got it on here for $275 and its the best looking watch i have in my case. I went to a jeweler to get some links removed and he was asking "where and how much" i paid for it because he liked it so much also.

I ordered this watch for my husband even though it wasn't the one he asked for because I thought it looked really nice and I liked the black. Turns out its a little big and chunky looking when u wear it. I still liked it, its a beautiful watch but I ended up returning because it just wasn't what he wanted.

really nice watch. if youre looking for a stylish watch this is the way to go. promise you will turn heads if you wear this

This is a really good watch, I was surprised when I opened the box and saw it in person. I've gotten so many compliments already. So if your trying to get a flashy watch and your looking at this one I would definatly recommend it.
