I ordered this watch as a little holiday gift for myself. The watch arrived tastefully presented on a pillow inside a well packaged gift box. I liked the look of the watch when I saw it online but I absolutely loved it when I saw it in person. The gold colour of the band will compliment any skin colour while the mother of pearl face plays with light to enhance whatever you might be wearing. The diamonds are eyecatching without being gawdy to give a look that can easily go from day to evening, jeans to little black dress. If you like a substantial watch with presence, consider this one.

A woman needs presence to pull off this gorgeous, but massive, watch from Bulova! Presence is a subjective quality that's related to self-confidence, bearing and style. This is not a watch for the faint of heart!The watch itself is stunning with 22 diamonds on the bezel, a mother of pearl dial, and a diamond pavé outline on the inner dials. If you think a watch that is huge and sparkles like the sun sounds gaudy - avoid this.Small boned or petite women may want to note that the curved, semi-rectangular watch is 1.5 inches long. At the widest point across the bezel to the edge of the stem is also 1.5 inches tapering down to 1 inch on either end. The band is approximately 3/4 inch wide. On a small wrist, this is going to look like a dinner plate or your father's watch (if your father was accessorized by Liberace).Despite Bulova's big advertising push touting themselves as an old American company founded by an immigrant Czech watchmaker, this watch has a movement that comes from Japan and a band that is made in China. The band has the sort of clasp you usually find on wide metal watchbands - when unclasped the bracelet gets wider but never fully opens. This clasp is a little difficult to open because there is no release on the top; you have to hook your finger under the band and pull the hinged piece.The massive on line discount is a big factor in this decision. The watch has a retail tag of $599.00 - must be the diamonds. I'd say the overall quality of the watch compares favorably to a gold tone stainless steel ESQ watch I recently bought at a local jeweler for about $250. That watch does not have the flashy glitz of this Bulova, but the quality of the gold tone steel is about the same. I was concerned about ordering the Bulova on line that the gold tone would be an unnatural shade (too brassy or too white), but it's fine.If you're looking for something marvelously dressy but a bit more conservative and/or smaller scale, try Bulova Women's Diamond Gold-Tone Steel Watch #98R72.Overall, this watch is highly recommended if you can pull it off!

I like the look of the watch, but the problem is getting it off. It has such a difficult closure, that I can hardly get it on by my self. Its also had to find the open/ closure.
