Finally a Moonwatch that is in stock! Bulova vs Omega is like Ford vs Ferrari. Both had important rolls in moon travel and competition was fierce. I’m really surprised Bulova hasn’t hyped this up like Swatch and Omega. I just got the 45mm version and it’s atomic clock accurate
For navigation use the black face with white hands is used because it is easier to use. I like the black dial for ease of use especially in poor lighting conditions. I ordered the black dial version. I have an Omega Speedmaster Mark II from 1974. I was using as my navigation watch when I was flying air charters in rural areas of Canada. I still have this watch, and get it maintained by Omega service about every 5 years. I wear it once in a while. The black dial Bulova looks very much like the Omega Speedmaster. As for size, the size of this watch is better for practicality. I like this size.
I LOVE theis watch. I never pulled the trigger on the 45mm because I felt it was too big for my 7 inch wrist. Seeing it on your 6 1/2 inch wrist, I think it looks sharp, and I know it will be a perfect fit on my wrist. The design of the pushers, the "snoopy" blue color, with the unique design of the case, I knew it was a must have as soon as I saw it. My wife said this would make a great birthday gift for me, which means April will be a great month! Great video. You have great taste in watches.
Ive watched 2 videos and Im hooked, im just getting into watches after getting my Omega speedmaster moon.The way you speak about watches and the passion you show makes me happy to be apart of this community, Im already apart of the fragrance community and have been since I was 12 (Im 26) but I am enjoying his community and the people in it. Your finds are amazing Im surprised that no one has spoken about these gems. Great work I'm excited to see more videos.
Great video as always. I like the direction Bulova are going with this, but 43mm x 50mm is still too big for many wrists. Yet, it’s not entirely about having a small wrist. Even if it technically fits their wrists, a lot of people still don’t want their watches to wear as prominently as this does. Hopefully this sells well enough for Bulova to consider a 40mm variant.
I saw this watch in the store for the first time, after only finding out about it on Thursday. Fell in love instantly and purchased it within 10 mins! I have a review pending
I bought the original for a couple hundred bucks. It was polished so I put it on a polished shark mesh bracelet. It’s my fanciest looking watch (according to my wife) regardless of it being on of my cheapest, lol. Love the story!
This was a great video. I own both the speed-master and the new blue/white lunar pilot. The Lunar pilot on the bracelet wears just as comfortable as the speed master. Awesome watches.
The previous version can be found under $400 sometimes. I guess I'll wait for prices do drop a bit when the hype comes down. I've always admired this one from a far as well, but with a 6.5" wrist at 45mm was too much. Still at 43 with a 50mm lug to lug is big! I think that's my limit. These look like they wear flat, but your making me rethink this. 😅
I think it should be called the Blue Moon. The beautiful blue finish and the textured white dial are stunning together. The depth of the watch makes one gaze at it, as someone might a full moon. I just ordered one a few days ago and I can hardly wait for it to show up.
Beautiful watch (black version). I have a Longines Zulu Time for special occasions, but I bought the Bulow to wear at work. Jeans and tshira trousers - perfect. The new smaller version fits perfectly on my 20 cm wrist.
Good review. I just picked up the blue and white one to go with my sapphire speedy as its a little different and compliments it nicely. I tried on the original but unfortunately it was MASSIVE. Definately worth trying the 43mm as this one just about sits nicely on my 6.75 inch wrist. It is fairly heavy on the bracelet but so far i haven't noticed it atall whilst wearing today on the leather strap. 👍
Just bought the “Snoopy” version, since I also have a black Speedy Pro. The dial is amazing. Not only is the main area textured, but it has a lot of depth. At times it has a silver hue that looks great. Really well done. Price has also come down. Available now for under $600.
I already have a couple of 45mm Lunar Pilots and will be buying the Snoopy 43mm version this week. In a world where so many watches look almost identical and have no history, I can't even imagine members of our community not having at least one version of this watch in their collection. Disclaimer : I'm a space aficionado and I was born in August 1971.
I like the look of the pushers. I actually think crowns and pushers are ugly warts on a watch. I love Seiko's with the crown at 4 because it integrates the crown into the case. These pushers do the same.
Excellent detailed review as always, and a pleasure to watch. I think this watch is now perfect in size - and true to the original that went to the Moon 👌😎 I also think this very accurate high beat quartz is a great choice for a chronograph. I do like that you get the choice of the original black and the new panda version. I have missed my 45mm version since I sold it about 5 years ago!! But I’m really pleased I can now buy a new improved version. I will also say that this size does look perfect on your own wrist Max. Wear in good health and enjoy! ⌚️💯👌😎
I have the older LP on bracelet and a 7" wrist. It's big, but I still like it, although I don't wear it as a daily. Arguably it is my cheaper moonwatch, while I save up to get the Speedy Pro in future.
I will absolutely be getting this watch (probably in black) but even with 10% off, it is too expensive. I'll wait until ot comes down to around $500 or lower. The 45mm can be found around $425 new right now.
Hi great review I'm contemplating about purchasing this snoopy version sure people keep debating about the seize i understand the old variant being 45mm but hey the new 43mm being the authentic seize worn by Commander Dave Scott is true all the best from the UK.
I have a Bulova chronograph that I was given 25 years ago that I wear as a contractor. I leave the mechanical watches at home. I swap watches daily. This I would have no problem and a quartz movement as well 😉👍
I love my 43. It is big but I have worn bigger. The Scott watch had a mechanical movement . I would love for Bulova to make one like that with thd 12 hr subdial.
It is a great watch. I just bought mine and it is a solid, well built watch. Super retro design and nice glove in pushers it is what you might expect to wear in the moon. A lot of value for your money. Now, I really like the precission of this caliber; so, I just missed why you rated it so low...anyway, great review.
To me, the Bulova 'moonwatch' always felt like a Porsche Design Orfina precursor rather than a Speedmaster deriviative. 43mm sadly is too big for me personally (41mm is my favoured limit), but damn if it's not a nice looking watch.
I have it, I wouldn't have had it smaller. Why would you give it a 6 on the movement... There are only 3 other movements from GS, Citizen and Longines that beat this one's precision and they come on a much greater price. This watch, as a whole package, is very hard to beat, the sweeping chrono hand, the dial combo of textures and rised/sunken elements, the original pushers (that clicks, not like smartphone volume), the tachymeter scale under the crystal...
Just not feeling the aesthetic of this particular Moonwatch Max. Subdials are too small relative to the overall surface area of the dial face IMO. Wrong proportions. This ratio is more obscured on the monochrome all black version. Average wrist guys which I am can pull off a 43mm..I have 43's and even a bit bigger like a Tuna 300m and I am a little over 6' which helps...but this watch doesn't do it for me. Don't own the all black 45mm version either. If Bulova gets it right, I may add one. Love your personality and your perspective Max. Appreciate you.
I love the lunar pilot but an annoyance is that having other 262khz watches the seconds hand isn’t smooth on the chronographs but the chronograph is smooth.
Great review 👍 The Lunar Pilot is an outstanding watch, but man alive... It wears like a damn *tea saucer!* Glad they put out a "smaller" one, but this one is still rather large for my taste & size (6.75" wrist, 38-41mm is my sweet spot)
I own both and I never believed “the crystal just magically popped off” while he just so happened to have a bulova prototype on him….. that said the PVD lunar pilot is amazing and still gets plenty of wrist time
Awesome video I purchased this watch. My question is does the seconds hand only sweep around continously only for an hour? That's when mine stops. I don't know if it's the quartz battery is dying or that's how the seconds hand function normally
So do they wear there watch on the outside of the space suit or inside? And how did they use the watch to tell time if worn on the inside? Or did he just wear it for the ahits and giggles?
100% a moons watch like it or not. I do think it was a bit of an overreach to make snoopy colors LOL. While most people's grails are watches 5k and up I think the watches under 1k is where the heat is at.
I got the original large one, without the date as that more closely approximated Scott's Lunar Pilot watch. Isn't Bulova considered a fashion brand, and not a luxury brand?
First watch to drive on the Moon? Um ... technically, no. Apollo 15 used the Lunar Rover during all three days of lunar exploration, and Dave's Omega's crystal didn't pop off until the second day.

You are correct. If you look at the Bulova, EVA #3 is written on the case back to signify the specific moonwalk the prototype was used on the lunar surface. Scott's Omega was worn on EVA #1 (head out the LM to 'survey the land') and EVA #2 (included rover driving).
no this aint (the same/true ) 1st watch to drive on moon (REISSUE), Bulova is trying to be lazy and just wanna make money to fleece gullible people to buy their new lunar watch, as far as i know and remember .the original moon bulova is mechanical, this new bulova fake moon watch is high accuracy precision quartz (only).
@@woonfaseng8737 Well, you may not have noticed this, but Dave Scott made that very same point when the original 45mm Lunar Pilot made its debut. He sued Bulova over the issue, and they settled. It’s one of the reasons why Bulova’s not using any of the names (or faces / images) of the Apollo 15 astronauts when advertising the Lunar Pilot line.
Great review! I also have small wrists, and I seldom wear my first release Bulova Lunar pilot. This correct size is tempting ! :) Also note, it was pointed out in an earlier comment; this likely wasn't the first watch to drive on the moon. That still likely belongs to Omega. The Bulova prototype didn't make it onto the lunar surface until (mission moonwalk) EVA #3 - this specific excursion is written on the caseback, it's visible in your video. The rover was driven earlier on mission EVA #2, and again on EVA #3.
I have the 45mm no date polished LP. Picked it up for under 300. I can easily pull off the size(8" wrist) but it's a door frame basher and could never be a daily wearer. I also have a problem with the cheap movement . It's accurate alright but it's not a jeweled repairable movement like their Precisionist models. They should honour the heritage of the watch with a better quality movement.
I want a moon watch for yeara...omega is too expensive but bulova was too big. Now...two color versions...honestly don't know if its just me but i dont like white dial watches but his with ita texture is kind of cool still black might be my choice ....but is it slightly boring?
There are lots of Space Watches. Omega. Bulova. Seiko. Casio. And a few lesser known Swiss brands plus at least two Russian brands. Between Mecury, Gemini, Skylab, the Shuttle, Soyuz, Mir, etc. and many more missions. Now with Bezos and Musk probably a dozen more watches joining the game. This is one of very few Quartz watches out there that has a little soul to it.
Just got my Lunar Pilot today and I love it already the only thing that's got me confused is the way it runs, so for normal time telling (not timing anything/ using chrono function) is the small 6 o clock second sub dial the only thing moving or is it supposed to be both the 6 o clock sub dial and the actual chrono second hand as I see in your video here?? please help
The Bulova Lunar Pilot is the Shheeeeeeeiitt!!! I can't believe Bulova didn't go for the money-grab and charged 1000+ for it. p.s. All the system / module / computer clocks in ALL the missions were BULOVA ! (computer clocks ) as in the hardware the software and computers ran on.
This Bulova is cool. On a side note, I love how there's alot of 'first watch to ....... on the moon'. I wonder what the first watch worn whilst peeing on the moon is.

Yeap, waiting for the drop, under 500 and I'll bite.

Finally! i'm getting it and as far as the size, it's the Lunar Pilot sized to the original specs. thank you for covering this iconic time piece.
Max, I loved that intro. Your videos are so top notch. Keep up the great work!

Absolutely beautiful! I think the bigger watch/face for these kinds of watches makes sense.
The proportions definitely work 👍
Thanks for the review. I just ordered mine today. Your point on the sizing was on. This piece it true to the original Lunar Pilot.

Yeah super cool execution 👍
I will try this on.
I purchased an Accutron last week.. awesome technics!
Not a bad looking quartz...would love one in 38mm, lol!
Yeah maybe in the works 🤔
It's a man's watch, not a ladies.

Well my 40th birthday is in a week and I had to pull the trigger on this one. Got a great deal. Can’t wait to try it with different bands.
Really like mine too! Snoopy colorway looks great, especially those pushers. 👌
I bought the 45mm PVD one many years ago, and its still one of my favs. Hopefully they will come out with an all PVD with PVD bracelet.
I loved this release! Truly enjoy this one. This blue 🐼 is definitely my favorite.
Got mine yesterday bit hesitant because of the butterfly clasp because of my thin wrist size but got a nice snug fit on the bracelet.
Got the special edition in black and I love it!

Max great review. I have been patiently waiting for this release and pulled the trigger on the black dial version right after watching your review!
all the instrument panel clocks and timers in the lam were made by BULOVA
You might have just convinced me to get my hands on this watch. The lug to lug is a big factor and this watch may wear smaller than 50mm
I cannot decide which one to get, both look sooooo good

You can find Bulova commercials from the 60s and 70s if you look around, and they pronounce it “BULL-of-a”.
100% a moons watch like it or not. I do think it was a bit of an overreach to make snoopy colors LOL. While most people's grails are watches 5k and up I think the watches under 1k is where the heat is at.

Isn't Bulova considered a fashion brand, and not a luxury brand?
Bro, you can buy a Movado at the mall. You can also buy a Rolex at the mall.
Fashion brands make clothing, bags etc. Bulova is a real watch company, so not sure how you can to that assumption?
Great ReviewM!! Glad I didn't pop earlier on this...the 43mm is the way to go..Do think just do haha!

I was just lucky enough to get the Black with the NATO Strap brand new for $350 bucks. Super excited.
I have the original but have always wanted a Panda Chrono. Do you think the extra cash is worth it over the Seiko SSC813?
Great take on the "other" moon watch.
I have owned the black faced pilot for three years now and it is on my wrist more than my speedmaster I just think it is a more charismatic watch
Love it, wish it was brushed though. Love your stuff Max, well done.

My question is: would this watch compare to Hamilton Khaki chronograph quartz? Are they alike ?
The Bulova Lunar Pilot is the Shheeeeeeeiitt!!! I can't believe Bulova didn't go for the money-grab and charged 1000+ for it. p.s. All the system / module / computer clocks in ALL the missions were BULOVA ! (computer clocks ) as in the hardware the software and computers ran on.
Have you ever wondered if these apocryphal moon stories are actually true? I realize it doesn't matter. It's still a nice watch.
You believe theres a Moon!? Cheers
I enjoy your other work. THIS episode was especially delicious.🔥🔥
I'll be waiting for these to come up used. Shame about the entire moonswatch situation, if they weren't so botched I'd own one already.
What bracelet size did you get?!

Local pawn has a few of these for 400.00 new. Might grab 1 at that price.
This Bulova is cool. On a side note, I love how there's alot of 'first watch to ....... on the moon'. I wonder what the first watch worn whilst peeing on the moon is.
I would personally love to know this!
I’m stuck between spending more on this or getting the Seiko Prospex Speedtimer 😭
Yes arnie, I also come day and night.
How long last the lume?
Dude where is your grey jacket from? 👌
OMG!! My Husband owns that watch.. Moon Watch 😂😂
Wow how much does it cost????
Like is it really called the moon watch or something???
