Bulova Hack 98A255 Military Inspired Automatic Watch $279 Delivered @ Starbuy

80

I've been waiting for a good field watch to come on special, and this time around the Bulova Hack 98A255 is $20 cheaper than last time. It's a little smaller than some at 38mm, but shouldn't look tiny on most wrists.

Some more specs:

Case Diameter: 38mm
Case Thickness: 13.45mm
Case Material: Stainless Steel
Glass: Mineral
Power Reserve: 42h
Water Resist: 30m
Strap: Leather

  • Meh. Buy the addiesdive for like 60 on aliexpress ans slap a Nato on it.

    • Linkage? I'd love to have a look but my ability to find things on Aliexpress is…limted.

      • Ha yes. Search function returns some random crap

      Call me a snob but I'd prefer Bulova on the dial than Addiesdive

      • Problem solved. Get the addiesdive with a blank logo.

          $60 sounds cheap, you should post it.

            @WatchNerd: Only during aliexpress sales

            • @Fergy1987: Nope it's never been that cheap, even you paid "about $85".

                @WatchNerd: My bad. I didnt get mine in a sale. So i figured with a sale and coupons it would be cheaper than i paid.

                  @Fergy1987: Nope that was on sale, hence my comment where I said I was considering posting it.

                  Normal price is around ~AU$112.00.

                  • @WatchNerd: Good to know. I'll try harder at being better at posting watch deals and knowing their historical prices. I bow down to the king.

                      This isn't reddit.

                      It's not even about trying, if you aren't sure about something.. you shouldn't post it like you are the authority on the subject.

        Brand snob. Print Rolex/Bulova/Casio/Timex/Seiko if you like, and put it on the blank logo version.

  • that strap is ugly.

    Should have just given a nato

    These Bulova Hacks are not worth the price as they have basic Bulova Caliber 7584 which is an $8 Miyota 1L45 movement… not worth the price..
    can the Starbuy Rep confirm what this has ?

    • It's a Miyota 8250. Not an $8 movement.

    • +1

      I got this a bit back around the $500ish mark on sale.

      Don't think anything else comes close to it in that price range and quality.

      • Nice! I like the Hamilton field watches. When was it at that price?

        • I got it in 2021 on ebay.

          There was a code to bring it down from 600ish

        • it's currently ~usd450 on jomashop which is around 650 (plus shipping possibly)

          white dial works out ~usd410 which is ~aud600

          not too bad considering the history, brand heritage and 'Swiss made' fineprint

        I picked up a steeldive SD1940M which is a homage to Hamilton field watches. The M is for 'murph' who wore a Hamilton in Interstellar.

        Built as good as the SD1970 with the same Seiko movement, sapphire crystal and with sunburst dial.
        Was around $125 delivered with coupons plus I threw on a $15 brown leather strap.

        I enjoy wearing this one

    • That's heaps better imo… always disliked Bulova as they never ever mention the movement… and sales reps defending their worth… gtfo
      Just reminds me of those shoddy watch gang watches…
