I've only owned one Bulova watch but it was a good experience. I had a Bulova Accutron Automatic. Very sturdy and reliable watch, sold for approximately $1,500. I haven't seen that one before.

Cool, wear it in good health. I'm not a fan of square watches, but if you like it wear it

BTW were you able to figure out the moonphase setting? Anything in the manual on how to set it?

I've set it but I dont know how accurate it is...All it says in the manual is :

"SEETING THE DATE AND MOONPHASE:
Step 1: To set date pull crown out to "INTERMEDIATE POSITION"...etc.
Step 2: To set the moonphase indicator, turn the crown away from you. The correct phase of the moon for a specific date can be found in newspapers, periodicals, and websites. It can be set more accurately during the periods of the "full moon" and the "new moon".

Not very helpfull lol. There was a full moon 4 or 5 days ago, so I set the moon in the middle position and advanced it 4 spaces to the right...I think I did it right not totally sure tho
