    • Our take on the Bulova Futuro (98D144)

    The Bulova Futuro 98D144 is a men's quartz watch with a black ion-plated stainless steel case and matching steel bracelet. It has a black dial with baton indices, a date window and a mineral crystal, and it is rated 3 ATM for everyday water resistance. It sits in Bulova's affordable dress-sport range, where it competes with entry-level Seiko and Citizen steel watches on looks rather than on features. It suits someone who wants a dark, sharp-looking steel watch for the office without paying luxury money.

    Questions and answers

    Is the Bulova Futuro 98D144 good for swimming?
    No. It is rated 3 ATM, which covers rain and hand washing but not swimming or showering. Take it off before water sports.
    Does the black finish wear off?
    The case and bracelet use black ion plating, which is more durable than paint but can still show scratches over years of daily wear. The edges and clasp are the first places to show it.
    What size wrist does it fit?
    It is a men's steel bracelet watch with a fold-over buckle and removable links, so it can be sized down for smaller wrists. Most jewelers will adjust it for a small fee.
    Does it have a light for reading in the dark?
    No. The hands and indices are not luminous, so you cannot read it in the dark. The mineral crystal is clear but does not glow.
    How does it compare with a Seiko 5 or Citizen steel watch?
    The Bulova is quartz, so it is more accurate and needs less upkeep than a mechanical Seiko 5. Against Citizen's Eco-Drive steel models it trades solar charging for a simpler battery movement and a darker all-black look.
    What comes in the box?
    The watch on its steel bracelet, a Bulova presentation box and a warranty booklet. No extra strap or tool is included.
    Where is the Bulova Futuro (98D144) cheapest?
    At Zales, for $367.50, as of our latest check.
    What do buyers say about the Bulova Futuro (98D144)?
