Key Features

• 6-Hand Chronograph Display – The watch features three sub-dials that independently track seconds, 12-hour, and 30-minute intervals, allowing for precise measurement of elapsed time. This functionality is ideal for timing workouts, cooking, meetings, or any activity requiring accurate interval tracking. The main time display remains clear and easy to read, even during active use.
• Quartz Movement – Powered by a high-accuracy quartz mechanism, the watch maintains consistent timekeeping with minimal deviation. Quartz movements are known for their reliability and low maintenance, requiring only occasional battery replacement. The included lithium-ion battery is pre-installed and designed for extended life, reducing the need for frequent servicing.
• Stainless Steel Case and Bracelet – Both the case and bracelet are constructed from corrosion-resistant stainless steel, ensuring long-term durability and resistance to everyday wear. The polished finish resists scratches and maintains its luster over time, contributing to a professional and polished appearance suitable for various settings.
• 100M Water Resistance – With a water resistance rating of 100 meters (330 feet), this watch is suitable for surface swimming, snorkeling, and exposure to rain or splashes. It is not designed for scuba diving, high-pressure water sports, or prolonged submersion. Users should ensure the crown is fully secured before any water exposure to maintain integrity.
• Marine Star Design Language – The dial layout reflects Bulova’s nautical heritage, combining clean lines, functional sub-dials, and a balanced overall aesthetic. The design emphasizes legibility and sporty sophistication, making it appropriate for both business environments and casual outings.
