Review: Great Watch, amazing price - I have been wanting a watch like this for a long time, but for the prices out there for this price here, $339 is about half what anyone else is asking, I had to jump on it. Watch looks great, is a true mechanical, 21jewel, automatic movement. I have been wearing it for a week now, it keeps great time, losing less than 2 seconds per day! That is chronometer territory there. Long term, we will see if it stays that accurate, but I am impressed.
Review: Perfect vintage look and feel - I have bought this based on numerous reviews on the web and on YouTube. What i was looking for was a watch that had a 1940s pilot watch look and feel. I think Bulova hit the mark with their reinterpretation of their classic A15. This was based on an experimental design that was based on the A11, but with the added function of 2 outer rotating internal bezels. This new version is a very close copy of that original design, just a bit scaled up for modern times. It does not feel overly large on my wrist, as i have an 8" wrist, and it looks well proportioned. The leather strap is surprising very soft and comfortable and looks like it belongs on a vintage pilot watch. I will certainly keep it on the watch. I tend to replace factory straps to something more of my liking, but his works perfectly. The biggest selling point for me is the two rotating bezels. No other watch i know know of has this and makes it a unique watch that has found a home in my collection. Since i bought it i have found myself wearing this daily over the others in my collection. The hands look period correct and have a nice vintage appearance. The dial is well printed and like the fact that the numbers are printed in white and not a faux patina. This appears just as a pilot would have received back in 1945 right out the box. The winding is smooth, the crown engages with a nice firm click and feels like a quality timepiece. I especially like the smooth caseback and the double dome sapphire crystal. This is sure to be favorite of mine for years to come!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A terrific automatic (self-winding) watch, with so many features!
*by F***B on September 15, 2024*

I love this watch! It as a fine military look and It is so easy to read at a glance, with, normal, military and duel time (if set) shown simultaneously. With the two dials you can use it as a stopwatch. I normally set the hour dial to 5 (duel time, Ireland) and the minute dial to the current date. It runs a little fast and I like that, as I hate to be late. Also , makes it very easy to reset (it has the Hack feature), as all you have to do is stop the watch and wait a few seconds to set it to the exact time. I prefer analogue watches as they visually represent the time remaining to the next minute, hour. etc. It has an automatic movement. I prefer an automatic movement to any other type movement. It is almost like having the impossible - a perpetual motion machine. No Battery, no winding - YES! I have no scratches, so far, on the sapphire face or the body. All in all, a beautiful watch!
