The Bulova 96E03 Diamond accented watch is a very classy looking timepiece. In terms of appearance, it doesn’t actually differ that much to the women model of the watch. Where it does differ is the size and use or strong lines. This makes the watch obviously masculine at first glance as well as being a fantastic eye catcher (you might be doing double takes in the mirror…).
“I was a little nervous it would not measure up in person. Boy was I wrong. When I first opened up the box, my first words were “Oh Wow”. I even said this out loud.”

The three smaller dials you can see in the background are the minutes dial, hours dial and the seconds dial. The watch has chronograph features, which I always look for in a watch, but I hardly ever actually use it!
The dial is made out of mineral, what’s mineral? It’s basically the middle of the road material used for watch dials. It’s not as effective as sapphire dials, but will resist most scratches and chips. If you’re really worried about getting your watch scratches (as we all are in the beginning), then this might be a problem for you. But generally the mineral does very well and you can always replace it if need be.

Bulova 96E03 Customer Comments:
“I was considering buying this Bulova watch at one of the local jewerly store’s here in town. It was priced close to $600.00 and the store would not move on the price.
Having purchased many items, mostly out of the electronics department with Amazon. I decided to “just see” if was carried there. Within seconds I ws able to locate the exact watch and saw that it was “less then half the price” of the local store.
That settled it, no more thinking or shopping involved, I ordered it. Once I received it, it of course had to be sized for me.
I took it to that same local store and for $10.00 they professionally sized it. I wear it everyday and it the first watch I receive compliments on.”
Bulova 96E03 Summary:
Overall I really do like this watch. The Bulova 96E03‘s best feature is its looks. If you’re looking for a watch to add some class to your image then this will certainly do the trick. According to most of the women I speak to, diamonds go with everything, so there’s no need to worry about that!
The chronograph features are spot on and work well. The dial is a nice size at 39mm, there is enough weight on the watch for it to feel substantial and high quality. The links on the band glide smoothly over your skin and are quite comfortable.
The only downside really is the mineral dial. But this is a small chink in the armour of an otherwise tremendous men’s watch from Bulova.
Why go through the hassle and expense of buying retail? It’s so much easier to have the watch delivered to you, packaged and ready. All you need to do is click a few times and you’ll save heaps of money! Most people buy the Bulova 96E03 through this link because it’s so cheap!
