- Is the Bulova 96A295 good for everyday wear?
- Yes. The steel case and bracelet and quartz movement suit daily use, and the slim 7mm case fits under a shirt cuff. Keep it away from swimming and showers, since it is rated to only 30m.
- Can I swim with this watch?
- No. The 30m rating covers splashes, hand washing and rain, not swimming or diving. For pool use, look for 100m or more.
- Does the chronograph need winding?
- No. It is a quartz watch, so the time runs on a battery and the chronograph pushers work without winding. The chronograph itself measures elapsed time via the sub-dials.
- How does it compare with a mechanical chronograph?
- It is more accurate day to day and needs no winding, and it is thinner than most mechanical chronographs. It gives up the sweeping seconds hand and the service-free longevity some mechanical buyers want.
- What is in the box?
- The watch on its stainless steel bracelet, with the foldover clasp attached. Bulova backs it with a 3-year limited warranty.
- Will the bracelet fit a large wrist?
- The bracelet measures 178mm, which fits most average wrists, and spare links are usually available from Bulova. The 26mm lug width means aftermarket straps are limited.
