The sweeping second hand was what attracted me to buy this watch with simple unqiue dial for semi and formal wear. Definitely the strap need to be changed to a better aftermarket leather strap.

This watch is probably the simplest design of the Bulova Precisionist line. It is elegant with an extremely interesting face and the famous smoothly moving second hand. I bought it to use as a dress watch. It is appropriate for office wear, a dinner date or possibly even with a tuxedo. Others have correctly pointed out that the leather band supplied is awful. I replaced it with an inexpensive but infinitely better black leather band. The watch also looks great with a stainless mesh bracelet.The watch’s accuracy is, so far, astonishing. Using the Watch Tracker app, I compared the time shown on the watch to the Atomic Clock numerous times over a two month period. During the first month the watch was kept indoors at around 72F for 95% of the time. It was worn only occasionally. During the second month the watch was worn approximately 12 hours a day. The app measured a total difference of -0.2 seconds over 60 days, a rate of loss of only 0.004 seconds per day!The app's potential measurement error is estimated to be +/- 0.25 seconds (per measurement). So, based on the measured difference of -0.2 seconds over two months, the range of possible total offset is -0.7 seconds to +0.3 seconds over two months, which projects as a worst case gain or loss of between -4.2 seconds and +1.8 seconds per year.After a reset for DST, the accuracy for the third month remained remarkable, measured at a rate of -1.1 seconds per year.We'll see if this amazing level of accuracy continues for this watch. If so, the expected annual gain or loss will be consistent with Bulova's circa 2010 marketing claim, now abandoned, that the watch is accurate to 10 seconds per year.UPDATE- After seven months (with two resets) the watch has lost a combined total of 0.7 seconds, or a tenth of a second per month, and continues on the same projected annual loss of about one second per year. Incredible.I paid $258, at which price this watch is a good value.

日本には正規に輸入されてないモデルのようです。ブローバの時計で、この価格でスイープ運針は珍しいと思います。文字盤にも細かい模様が彫ってあり、写真で見るよりもきれいな時計です。ちょっと大ぶりな時計ですが、平均的な日本人男性なら問題ない大きさだと思います。
