Bulova 96B259 Watch Review hey guys this is andrew with my watch
addiction com bringing you another
watch review today we're gonna take a
look at a Bulova precision 96b259 aesthetically
received in on trade before we get
started though guys just a few quick
things number one quick wrist check is
that Griffin emblem that I reviewed on
Monday from the Kickstarter campaign
campaign if I could talk absolutely
loving this watch so far you've got to
be in my daily rotation for sure this
guy's not going anywhere anytime soon
number two as always if you haven't
already hit that subscribe button down
in the right-hand corner follow us into
the future in number three March 31st
2018 that is the day that I will be
doing a quick overview of my current
watch collection so you guys can see
what I have in my rotations we'll talk a
little bit about the watches and at the
end of that video we will do we'll
finish up the contest for the chance
that you guys winning one of my watches
so we'll announce the winner of one of
my watches in the end of that video on
March 31st 2018 anyway guys let's tear
into this Bulova precision Quartz watch into
this pursuing this box they've got kind
of a neat box design first of all first
and foremost that's the model number of
this watch it's a Bulova 96b259 but I I kind
of like how below those boxes operate if
I can get it open so they kind of follow
open here and underneath you see the
Bulova manual instructions
but that's not where we're here we're
gonna take a look at this Bulova
precisionist 96b259 will point out is as I
mentioned I took this watch in on trade
for another watch that I had so this
watch has been worn this is not a
brand-new watch so there is some signs
of wear on it but this is the Bulova
precisionist 96b259 now this
watch in form and function is almost
exactly the same as the gunmetal
precisionist I reviewed a few videos
back both in the primarily the
functionality we want to take a look
around this watch real quick just so you
can see what it's all about so we have I
believe those are 24 millimeter wide
lugs for the bracelet and as I mentioned
you can see a little bit of wear on the
bracelet there itself which I'm not too
worried about because should be able to
buff a good portion of that out see the
quick release or double locking clasp on
this bracelet and has micro adjustments
right there in the band snaps over so if
we look at this guy and take a walk
around it real quick up at that 12
o'clock position on this chronograph you
have the tenth of a second and hundredth
of a second dial indicator I did learn
after doing my last video that the 6
o'clock position is the one thousandth
of a second indicator for this watch and
then the 9 o'clock position is the
minute indicator for the chronograph
along with the 24-hour indicator at the
3 o'clock position for the watch
function and you can see at that 12
o'clock position
those dials just going absolutely nuts
so that's coming off 100th of a second
in a tenth of a second and then if we
stop the stopwatch here you can see at
the six o'clock position that counted
off one thousandth of a second we talk
about the size of this watch for a
minute this guy has a case diameter of
42 millimeters ooh that's gonna leave a
mark
with a case thickness of 14 millimeters
and I cannot believe I just dropped this
guy but you know what I'm gonna do much
worse to it when I'm wearing it so life
goes on does have rotating bezel nice
firm clicks to it reset it here it'll be
able to see this sweep on this precision
as now these Bulova precision as' are
quartz watches and are billed as one of
the most accurate quartz watches on the
market I have no way of proving that or
knowing that for sure but that's what
what they're kind of claim to fame is
extremely accurate quartz chronograph
now for me this watch I actually took
this watch in trade as I mentioned but
if you're wondering how much these
watches go for currently right now you
can pick up one of these 96B259 s
without the metal bracelet but with a
black leather strap on Amazon for 214
dollars and you can actually pick them
up a lot cheaper in social media I've
seen these guys go for as low as $100 a
hundred and hundred and fifty dollars
with the bracelet I I'm a big fan of
bulova watches and these precision
espada 'ls I really really like for some
reason as far as quartz watches go
probably one of my favorite watches from
a quartz watch Sam
are these below of our precision as you
can see the sweep on that dial I talked
about it in the last video just really
really really neat watch so this is the
Bulova precision is that I received in
on trade recently thank you guys for
sticking around and taking a look at
this watch with me if you stick around a
little bit more you'll be able to see
some close-up pictures of this guy as
well as some loom shots if you have any
questions or comments about this watch
definitely post them up in the comment
section below and let me know what you
guys think I can say this compared to
the gunmetal gray one I'm actually
liking this watch a little bit better
than the gunmetal gray reviewed a few
weeks back simply because the the case
is a little bit more comfortable for me
to wear on my wrist I can see this one
getting a lot more wrist time than that
gunmetal precision is that I received in
anyway guys if you want to reach out to
me you can always do so add my watch
