ATL on this awesome watch, at this price it's almost a no-brainer. Retro vibes, 262KHz hi-beat quartz, sapphire glass…what's not to like?

  • Case Material: Stainless Steel
  • Glass: Sapphire
  • Strap: Stainless Steel Bracelet

  • Not sure I would trust a watch named "Jet Star" to be on time..

      The irony is that this is one heck of an accurate movement!

      Edit: typo

    • First time anyone has said that on these post (but why not 🥱😆).

      Ps. Great watches, got the silver/grey one. Not really a fan of gold and brown but looks vintage.

      • I've hinted previously that it would look great with a paisley shirt and some bell-bottom jeans. A much younger version of me may have worn an outfit just like that once before…

          Nothing stopping you getting some corduroy pants and a loud shirt..

    Love the updated website design!

    • It still has some teething issues. The "bestsellers" list is referencing the "new arrivals" list. Unless SB really has sold more $7.5k Frogmans recently than almost any other watches in their catalogue.

    • It’s very nice yea

    I would get this if they hadn't removed the numbers from the dial to save on costs. I wouldn't mind paying extra for a more premium version that has numbers.

      Not sure Bulova have removed the numbers to save on costs, more likely to be as it looks a "homage to the 70's" styled watch when most cushion designs didn't have numbers just batons on the dial.

    • Do numbers cost money? I think you've complained about that before.

      No shortage of other choices around.

      • Rude shock could be incoming if dive watches come onto the radar…

        • Plenty of dive watches of all budgets.

          It's good to learn how to read the time without numbers :P.

  • Can't seem to get $25 code despite trying multiple emails, clearing cache etc. It says code has been sent but havent received anything.

  • Sorry,this colourway is just ugly…YMMV

    • +2

      I think you kinda had to be around in the 70s once before to truly appreciate the styling, or be a real aficionado of retro gear.

  • Do people make a new account everytime for $25?

    • Times is tough, but I guess it depends which lane of the two-speed economy you occupy.

      • Was actually interested to know if one can get $25 off multiple times or just one off so should hold for the right watch.

  • Anyone knows if this was ever on sale after the post that I just linked? If yes around what price?
