Bought a couple of these beauties (one new, one used). Definite favourites !
Then I bought this one but I just didn't bond with it, so back it went. @Davey P, if you think this is small, you're madder than I thought you were ! :laugh:

I didn't notice this part of the forum so I'm now joining the Bulova owners club. I have a 3 year old Precisionist on rubber, would like a Champlain and a SeaKing too.
I have a Champlain (not the gold coloured one!) and its the beast in my collection as I only just fits in the compartment of atch case when I am not wearing it. I agree about the SeaKing, I like the look of it too! in fact I like most of the watches I have seen on here! Will post pics when I get to 50 posts
I completely agree, they've effectively pulled the plug on a lot of the internet. I had an account for over ten years and did have a paid account at one point. It was nowhere near what they expect people to pay now. Account closed!
It's a shame the photobucket fiasco has ruined this and many other threads on here, would have liked to see Daveyp's collection, how about re-posting? :yes:
No problem mate, watch number 4 is the UHF Military, model number 96B230, which has proved to be pretty popular around here. It's actually quite small, at just over 40mm excluding crown, but it wears beautifully on the wrist. Most of my watches are at least 5mm bigger, but this one is a 100% definite keeper and I wear it a lot, which tells you something about it.
It's one of the smallest in my collection, but you should definitely try one on rather than focus only on the size, because it looks great on the wrist. My wrist is a fairly chunky 7.5", and it looks like this when worn:
Watching a few youtube vids I saw it stated at 42Ø, as it's mostly watch face it will do. That second hand sweep looks even smoother than the Precisionist
although I know it cant be. A proper B&M is at least a 60 mile jaunt for me so..
I am a newbie to the forum but have been around Bulovas awhile. I am more of a old school accutron collector but have a couple newer Bulovas also.
Two M2 Spaceview "B" Style 21013 Yellow Dots/both with correct M1 movements,hands and crystals. One was my grandfathers. Both on Coffin Link Bracelets.
Two M1 Spiral Lug 14Kt Gold Spaceviews (Left One in White Gold, Right one in Yellow Gold)
Anyone else struggling to buy a quartz watch after owning a Bulova with the UHF movement?
Looking at plenty of eco drive reviews on YouTube today, one, because I like solar power and two, because I don't own a Citizen. I'm struggling to get past the clunky second hand that mostly seem to miss the markers.
Just seems a shame the UHF movement isn't available across more manufacturers, unless you know different..
I seem to be stuck in a loop of buying either Bulova Precisionists or TW Steels, the Bulovas for their super smooth movements and the TWs for their sheer size :tongue:
My one and only Bulova at the moment , there will be more to follow :thumbsup: My prize from Roy . Thank you very much , a fantastic prize and a very kind gesture .
