Bulova 98c120 Review

     Good morning and Happy Father's Day to all of you fathers out there! Today, I will be reviewing the Bulova 98c120 Men's Two-Tone watch. But first, to start with today's coffee.

                                     

     This morning, I am drinking Cold Smoke Coffeehouse's freshly roasted El Salvador-Direct blend with beans from Menendez Farm. The coffee itself is rich and caramelly, nutty, sweet, and buttery. As a coffee lover myself, I consider this blend, or any other blend from Cold Smoke Coffeehouse a must-try if you are a coffee drinker. You can purchase this coffee straight from any of their locations in Bozeman Montana, or online at https://coldsmoke.coffee/collections/coffee.

     Now back to the watch. The Bulova 98c120 is one of the many beautiful timepieces in my collection. The watch itself is made of stainless steel and has a silver-ion plated finish. The dial of the watch is absolutely striking with its black, patterned dial, and its sub-dials that feature the date, 24-hour time, and the day. The watch itself features a Japanese quartz movement and a mineral crystal. The band of the watch features a traditional pin sizing system and has a fold over clasp with a safety lock, as well as a bracelet extension for easy sizing in case your wrist expands throughout the day. The watch's 43mm casing and 10.3 mm casing makes the watch wear very comfortably on the wrist. The water resistance of the watch is set at 30 meters, which means it will be suitable if you get caught in a rainstorm or handwashing, but it is not suitable for showering, swimming, snorkeling, or diving. The only thing that I could think of that would make this watch even more enticing would be if it had some sort of luminescence on its dial or hands and if it had a greater water resistance.

     Overall, in my personal opinion, I believe that this is a beautiful dress watch. It is my go-to for dressy occasions and it also wears well if the goal is to draw attention to your watch. I believe the watch is versatile in not only being a great dress watch, but in also being a great casual watch to wear for everyday use. This watch makes for a great piece in any collection and is a great watch if you would like to dive into the entry-level end of Bulova's watch market. The watch itself retails for $395 MSRP, but can be had for around $200 on sites like Amazon.

                          Thank you for reading, and enjoy the rest of your day!
