Bulova Lunar Pilot 43mm 96K111 - Unboxing and First Impressions

[@mickyday2008]

I’ve got a Lunar Pilot and a Speedmaster and love them both. The Lunar Pilot is ridiculously accurate

[@carl5667]

bro you have no idea how much scrambling i’ve done to find someone with a sub 7 inch wrist wear the lunar pilot. My wrist comes in at 6.75 and seeing you pull it off at 6.5 is a huge relief and instills a great amount of confidence that it’ll fit. For that solely, I’ll subscribe

[@welcomewrist]

Thank you! I appreciate the support 👍

[@adamc.sieracki4145]

Great looking watch. 👍👍 Nice that it's packaged like that, unlike some swiss luxury watches that are just in cardboard boxes.

I wear my Rolex Subby constantly. But this new Bulova moon watch is very, very nice. I'm definitely going to pick one up and wear it every other day. I like the white one with the blue trim.

[@pearlflubber]

That box looks so nice!!

[@welcomewrist]

It was a lot heavier than I expected

[@Brad8261]

I’ve been contemplating this watch. I have slim wrists too at just under 7 inch. Seeing this video has given me confidence that I may just be able to wear this beauty. Thank you!

[@eetswalad]

Wow this makes me now consider this watch 😮

[@rscache]

This is such a cool watch!

[@welcomewrist]

I think so too

[@danryan4137]

Squish test? I love it. Sold my 45 mm lunar pilot. Great that it’s no date, mini might be pushing it a bit but great review.

[@patrickthomas100]

I own the original reissue Lunar Pilot and I like it but, I never really loved it. For me, it was just too big at 45mm. While this new one is much improved at 43mm with the polished case. I still think it’s missing that one thing that would make it a worthy affordable alternative to the Speedmaster. It really needs to have an automatic movement in order for me to love. I’m going to wait for that to happen before I buy another Lunar Pilot. Great video. Thanks.

[@welcomewrist]

An automatic/manual wind version would be a great move for Bulova.

[@danielwalt3677]

Awesome unboxing

[@welcomewrist]

Appreciate it 👍

I don´t care if it's going to look like a mighty morphin power rangers morpher in my wrist, I want this for my birthday this year.

[@andyguy0610]

Quite a while back I bought the full sized special edition with the leather strap and the more authentic looking webbing velcro strap. I absolutely loved it but ended up selling it because it was getting almost zero wrist time. The reason for the reluctance to wear it was simple the Sapphire glass protrudes a good 1mm, its un protected and I was scared of chipping it. Why did the not increase the height of the bezel to cover the glass? It must have a draw as years later I have just re bought it. It will get worn but sadly the initial worry has not gone away

A great BOX review..... can I just have the box??

[@roberthansen9876]

Maybe this was mentioned in the video, but there are two versions of this watch. One that has a polished case, like in this video, and one that has a brushed case. I believe that the polished case comes with the set that includes the black band, or when you buy it singularly with the black band, while the brushed case comes when you buy it singularly with just the metal band. Anyways, I hope so, since I ordered the set shown in this video (96K111) and I really want the polished version of the case. Unfortunately, the stock photos, even on Bulova's site, show the brushed version of the case.

[@roesroyce]

Think your getting mixed up with the 45mm they came in a bead blasted mat case and polished no date case plus a black case version , the 43mm versions are all polished .

[@roberthansen9876]

@@roesroyceThanks. I did finally realize that many stores are showing stock photos of the 43mm that just look brushed but are not accurate. I did finally order one and it looks just like the one in the video, polished.

[@EndtheWokeMadness]

I have the 45 with the bead blasted case, but it has the date window. ​@@roesroyce

amazing watch

[@PINKFL0YD-s2h]

Are they just pins and no collar? Tnx

[@welcomewrist]

Yep, no collar

[@simsalartist]

Will you keep this watch for yourself or is it only momentarily yours for showing here and testing and after returning it to the dealer ? - I ordered this watch a little earlier today and looking forward to receive it in 2 or 3 days. Have considered many other watches but finally decided for this one. Hope and am sure I made the right choice. - A real eye catcher on your wrist. Missing only how the luminous dial looks in the dark but nothing to complain.

[@welcomewrist]

All watches on my channel have been purchased by me, I don't receive any watches from any retailers/dealers. I've been enjoying it and don't have any plans to let go of it anytime soon. With that being said, I do have to eventually let go of some watches to make room for others.

[@SABUJMIDACYDANCES-wy5dy]

wow beautiful ❤

[@scatterbrain9490]

Oh yaa

[@ivanmirones9220]

What is your wrist size in cm?. I’m 17cm ,left 7 normal links on each side.

[@welcomewrist]

Roughly 17cm

[@philliprackow7153]

Just ordered mine today. What did you pay for yours if I may ask?

[@welcomewrist]

I snatched it up during a sale for $550 AUD.

[@michaelrhodan]

For the price, I would have expected the watch to be assembled in the USA. That is a bit of a disappointment. I wonder if production in the US would be so much more expensive?

[@seanm3226]

Absolutely.

[@danmcfrost6085]

dos minutos en ver un pedazo de cartón!!! Nadie quiere ver el cartón de la caja, sino el reloj

[@MrJoeruggiero]

Wow! That is way too big for your wrist

[@Mistah_J_1904]

Assembled in china?? Smh
