  • Military look!
This is one of my favorite watches in my collection. It looks and feels great. It isn’t heavy on my wrist either. It keeps time accurately throughout the day. I usually use it for a day then put it away for a few weeks. I’ve had it for almost two years and still works well!

  • Bulova Military Hack Watch with Ivory Face Bulova Military Hack Watch with Ivory Face
Recently I was browsing watches and found that there was a family of vintage field watches which were designed to resemble timepieces worn by soldiers in World War II, Korea, and Vietnam. I started researching the watches and found they were designed to be easily read, rugged and durable, and simple in design. The Bulova "hack" watch got my attention with its ivory face and simple design. Plus, the price was very reasonable for an automatic watch compared to some of the other watches in the market. When I looked up photos of the original vintage watches from the 1950's, a watch with an ivory face really appealed to me because my father was in the Korean War and many of these were distributed to the military personnel. I ordered the Bulova Military Heritage Hack Watch and it arrived the very next day. When I opened the box and saw the watch, I wasn't sure this was what I wanted. It had a plain, black leather strap and the design was simple and very easy to read. No clutter with a day/date feature and the only adjustment was to set the time and start wearing the watch after giving it a couple of winds. This is an automatic watch, so it winds itself when you wear the watch. After I put it on and took my dog for a walk, I became more sold on this watch. It was extremely comfortable and I hardly knew that I had it on. It was very easy to see the time and, from a deeper emotional level, it was nice to get back to an analog watch inspired by a great history. Sometimes it's good to take a step back from digital technology, look back at history, and rediscover some great brands that served our parents well ... and still have a place in this hectic world. "The more things change, the more they stay the same." I appreciate the quality of the Bulova Hack Watch and am extremely satisfied with my purchase. ... show more

  • Nice, plain, simple watch.
I have been wearing this watch for about 3 weeks now. I like the history of the watch. I did not know that Bulova made watches for the military. I wanted an old school, no frills, vintage looking watch. Nothing blingy. Based on the history and look of this watch, I decided to buy it. At first I wasn't sure I was going to like it. Watching some reviews online, people have said it was a thick watch. I did not find that was an issue. It looks thick, but it doesn't feel thick when wearing it on your wrist. There is no date so you don't have to worry about setting that and getting it in sync for a specific date. You just set it on the time and you're good to go. The numbers are easy to read and easy on the eyes. I also like that feature that you can manually wind the watch. So if you decide you wanted to wear another watch, you don't have to put it on a watch winder. Just a few spins of the crown and it should keep it running for a couple days before you have to wind it again. Of course, you can just wear the watch and it would wind itself. Like most automatic watches, the time will be off a few seconds everyday. In this case the watch runs a little faster. No big worry. After a few days, just reset it or because of the name and history of the watch you can, "hack" it. So cool. I didn't like the watchband that came with the watch. I replaced it with a different leather band which felt more comfortable on the wrist instead of the NATO strap it came with. It just seemed a little bulky for me. It's all preference. I've already had some compliments on the watch. People commented that they liked the plain Jane look of the watch. Not flashy. Very conservative and vintage looking. ... show more

  • Maybe it's nostalgia
Most watch manufacturers have field watches in their catalog -- simple designs, easy to read, no complications (that would make a good title for this review). Lately, it seems some of these have been marketed as military style, the watches that were issued to allied infantrymen during WW II. Hamilton has focused on its khaki line, but most watch manufacturers did their bit for the war effort. Bulova, which was then based in New York, was making these watches. They became the second wristwatch most of us kids had in the 1950s (after the Mickey Mouse watch) when there were plenty of army suplus supplies available. Today, Bulova is owned by Citizen, a Japanese company, but they tactfully don't say "made in Japan" In any event, the watch is offered as a reissue of the A11 -- that's the specification of the military watch, or was during WW-2. The dial is on the small side, which is sort of a relief from the oversized wristwatches that have become popular. It's simple -- three hands: hours, minutes, and seconds -- no day or date. It's both automatic (self winding) but can be wound by the stem as well. It has very poor illumination (lume?) so don't plan to read it in the dark without turning on the light. It's thick, and the strap is a very soft leather that stretches out after a few days of wear, It's a sort of NATO strap, going underneath the watch, which makes an already thick watch a little bit thicker, but not by much. I've had no problems with it. I've looked for information on the accuracy, but can't find anything beyond the -20/+40 rating, but can't find anything significant. After 5 days I didn't notice any variation worth reporting. It's pretty acurate. In the couple of years I've lived with this watch I've never had to reset it except when I let it run down, or for daylight savings. Overall, it's a nice wristwatch at an affordable price -- or maybe it just reminds me of my childhood. Also, you don't have to worry about "thirty days hath september.." ... show more

  • Excellent value and vintage class Excellent value and vintage class
Bulova is a beloved, old school American watch brand for a reason. And this watch does not disappoint. It’s utilitarian vintage style with a nice light ivory face and military time, makes this field watch a must own classic. The domed crystal really brings it up a notch; a quality that makes this watch classier than many other standard field style watches you see on the market. Fittings are brushed stainless with a polished finish which gives it a higher end industrial feel. The lum is good and bright and the time has been accurate to within a few seconds per day. An added touch of class, the sweep second hand sets this apart from the average Seiko or Timex of similar style. Some reviewers haven’t been a fan of the band, but I actually love it and feel it suits this watch perfectly. It’s soft leather in a nato style with fittings that match the case. Speaking of the case, it’s really the grail size at 38mm which makes it large enough to read, without being fashion watch trendy. It’s a field watch so expect it to be thicker than a dress watch. But it’s light weight and not clunky to wear. All in all, this will be on my wrist more often than some of the other more expensive watches in my rotation. It’s an absolute classic, simple, elegant and timeless. Seller was quick and shipped to my current remote location via FedEx. You can’t go wrong with the Bulova Hack as this is a really great watch for the money. UPDATE Still like the leather band although it is soft and has stretched a bit, which is to be expected. I’ll end up swapping it out for something a bit more sturdy. ... show more

Perfect watch for this category, of course the more expensive options look nicer but this gets the style across at a good price.

  • Solid Field Watch Solid Field Watch
I farm, so I tend to be inadvertently rough on things I own. Many of the reviews for these Bulova’s talk about their weight and size, the watch is not heavy, more on the light side. I do like the simplicity of the watch, and the markers and lume do a good job. The watch keeps time very well, I have only set mine once, which was the day I got it. It doesn’t seem to have lost or gained much time, as it is still telling the correct time. The power reserve is great for a watch in this price level. The first thing I did was take the horrendous factory “nato” strap off and put it on a regular nato band. I have no complaints, and the watch is a solid every day wear. ... show more

  • Great looking watch - looks better on a tan strap Great looking watch - looks better on a tan strap
It's a handsome automatic watch at a decent price. The size is great for my baby 6.25" wrists I didn't care for the included strap - too many metal buckles that get uncomfortable when typing at a desk and the like. Plus, a tan strap makes the dial look much nicer than the black it came with. The 18mm lug width does make finding new straps a bit of a challenge, but not impossible. Accuracy is OK - mine runs a little fast out of the box, but tolerable for an automatic. The lume on the hands is good, but just OK on the indices. My only real gripe is the crown. It's a beautiful signed crown, but it is a little sharp and it digs into my hand from time to time. The included strap helps as it keeps the watch a little elevated off the wrist, so a NATO strap may also help with this ... show more
