Ranked by "would it survive the day"
Lunar Pilot 96B251 — ~$580
A real moon watch for the price of a nice dinner. Bulova's chronograph went to the lunar surface on Apollo 15. The reissue keeps the panda dial and the story.
Oceanographer Devil Diver 96B322 — ~$630
The devil is in the dial. Bulova's 70s diver reissue with the crosshair dial, now with an automatic movement and sapphire crystal.
Wilton GMT 96B385 — ~$600
Two time zones, zero fuss. The Wilton is the thinking person's travel watch — automatic GMT for the price of a quartz fashion piece.
Marine Star 96B382 — ~$260
The entry ticket. Clean, blue, and tougher than it looks. The watch you buy when you want one watch that does everything.
Prices change daily, so we link straight to Amazon for today's price.
Bulova Classic Sutton Blue Dial — ~$250
Blue sunray dial, day-date window and a full steel bracelet. The easy office watch that looks pricier than it is.
The short version
One watch: Lunar Pilot — a moon watch for $580 is absurd. Want automatic? Devil Diver.
