Hard to beat a sweep like that. I love it when I show this watch and automatic snobs appreciate it right up until they realize it is a quartz movement. They seem to think only an automatic can have a smooth sweep. So I tell them this is twice as smooth as their 28,800 bph swiss movement (it literally is. 8 bps compared to 16 bps) and cost several times less. In some cases thousands of dollars less. And it is more accurate per year than their watch is per day. Accuracy and sweep. You really can't beat that. Anyone who prefers an automatic over a watch like this is obviously getting their time from their phone or something. I wear a watch for accurate tracking of the time and I hate automatics that slowly are off more and more until you are forced to reset it every few days. How is that 'better' than something like this? I've got two Precisionists and I love them.
Same story here, hate automatics with their lack of practicality. I need an accurate time on my wrist that also looks good, if any of those requrements is not met than it is not for me.
I absolutely love how this watch looks. Too bad they changed out the tuning fork at 12 from the older version. I won't mention the incredible hi beat movement since it's already been aptly described by other viewers so I'll simply note the aesthetics. I can't help but see a 007 James Bond motif. The dial is hypnotic, has a gun metal finish and (almost) looks like the inside of a gun barrel. And a really cool design detail is that the infinity logo on the second hand offset appears directly above the "Precisionist" line at 6 o'clock on every sweep. Also from the right angle, the hour hand resembles an elongated tuning fork. The date with white background is also perfectly proportioned with clear black print contrast. Lastly, the 22m lug to lug gives the casing a wide stance that looks stately and classic. At sub $200 USD on Amazon, I don't have to worry about damaging it and can wear daily.
Nice sweeping hand .........but still needs to be opened every year or so to replace the battery.....that is its weak link......if not sealed right that beautiful second hand stops all of a sudden by just washing your hands....
maybe just maybe your right! i love the look of the watch and that a sweeping quartz was like wow!! but yeah it looks kinda to smooth the more i look. almost as if artificial as you said....
my grandfather passed leaving me with this watch but with a blue dial. it is absolutely beautiful and I will always be a fan of Bulova
This is the watch that made me fall in love with Bulova. Superb company!
sweeps smoother than a rolex and a patek
Quite impressive ... bulova have a few nice models
It is a sweeping quarz, great isnt it
Der Elias absolutely, and way better sweeping than any automatic at that price point
Grand seiko spring drive is better
LiquidSm0ke True! They cost thousands of dollars more and only sweep marginally better (almost imperceptible) than this sub $200 example.
That’s Grand Seiko type movement. Phenomenal
I have to admit that this model from Bulova really won me over 🥰
Holy mother of cameras that is a nice macro.

that's how GS made their spring drive series, a quartz regulated mechanical watch, and the sweep of the GS is even more smoother than Bulova's
Bulova is killing it right now with their Precisionist movement. You want excellent accuracy and a smooth movement, it's the only way to go.

Hi, where have you buy this version with the logo at 12? I can't find it and it's lovely!
Yo lo conseguí en JC Penney
Love this movement! 😍
How does the mineral glass hold on?
What accurcy do they claim? +-5 seconds a year?, I owned one a few years ago and it was off 5 seconds after the first month that I bought it.

is it my imagination or the minute hand is also moving constantly
oh wait, all watches do but somehow this one even feel smoother
is leather band?
Yes, this is leather band
They removed the moment logo?
is the crystal sapphire or cheap mineral glass?
mineral
How much ticks a second is this?
Nick Veile 10 per second.
I believe it's actually 16
Very Nice
is it screwing crown
Smooth
I guess there comes a point where too smooth almost looks artificial. Like it's just a geared down motor running constantly
so?
@@Garrethm46 It's like artificial hearts that don't beat. It's incredibly uncharacteristic and just looks wrong
maybe just maybe your right! i love the look of the watch and that a sweeping quartz was like wow!! but yeah it looks kinda to smooth the more i look. almost as if artificial as you said....
@F H I don't care what's in it. It looks artificial
You wouldn't say that if it was a Rolex lol
Is it automatic?
No. quartz movement.
+HUYUSHOGUN9 Thank you for the nice video and reply. Good luck👍
