5.0 out of 5 stars Stunning
Reviewed in the United States on November 30, 2021
Bulova Sutton in Rose Gold with brown alligator(ish) strap. Photos do not do this watch justice. The color and elegance of the design are fascinating and you’ll find yourself staring at it often throughout the day. Being able to see the movement at work is also great if you're a gearhead like me. I’ve wanted a good skeleton watch for exactly that reason and Bulova is a solid reliable brand. I’ve had my eye on it for a while and when the price dropped I had to scoop it up. Boy am I glad I did. Now that the price is back up to $419 I can say I’d still buy it.

The movement is smooth and accurate. I’ve been wearing it for about a week and it hasn’t lost a minute. It is an automatic so I do keep it on a watch winder at night. So far it keeps time just as well as my Hamilton, which was twice the price. If I had to criticize anything I’d say the rotor (counterweight) is a bit noisy when you move your wrist, and there is hardly any lume so it’s basically unreadable at night. But for me at least that doesn’t matter so much. Time will tell for durability but I trust Bulova and in my opinion they knocked it out of the park with this.
