I never really liked watches with Gold, thought it was very 90's and gaudy. However, I fell in love with this watch when I saw it, especially with the price for a quality brand. The gold is very subtle and accents the deep royal blue color well. The average size face sits perfectly on the average male wrist. I had to take 3 links out (usually only have to take 2 out), but the watch first comfortable with a good weight without being too heavy.

If you are new to watches and unsure of the Bulova brand, know that they are owned by Citizen and have been around for over 100 years. A watch like this is a perfect example of their craftsmanship combined with consumer friendly pricing. This watch looks great with business atire, casually with a button down shirt or polo, or out on a boat with no shirt at all.
