These look good but I have to say pressing the button to see the time is a real pain, I'd forgotten just what an irritation it was back in the day.

Once again Simon another great instalment and focusing on a pretty neat little Bulova! Also saw one of the Hamilton Pulsars in the metal at Redbar Bristol and it’s build quality was superb. I think the GP is the cherry in this design category, but quite a bit more dosh!

Cheers Lawrence 🙏🙏 Agree that the GP would also be my pick if price was no consideration - I did notice that there's one of the Casquette 2.0s currently for sale on Ebay for £5k!

Whilst I appreciate the retro charm of pressing the button and the historical accuracy I’d only get one if it had an always on display.

I knooow, As you mentioned, one of my biggest downs to NOT get this watch was precisely the need of pressing that button to check the time.

I'd have liked to know if the green on strap and green line on top of phone are lit or just a bright paint and if it glows in dark etc
@Escapement24 Жыл бұрын
The line on the top of the case isn't illuminated - just paint. Neither are lumed.

@@Escapement24 it is a shame the limited edition one didn't have a green led to light the internals, that would be a decision maker for me.

…first-time viewer new subscriber ! love Bulova design and they’ve had their hand in a number of tech innovations…but had not seen these new releases ! Wow beautifully done imo, esp attracted to limited-Ed which has a generally similar bracelet design to one i have fitted to a 1970 Accutron…of which the visible circuit-board is also alike…but live casual rubber-strap also…BUT, really have to agree re: annoying lack of always-on display or perhaps option of…!!!

Great vid Simon, and one cool watch but for me their steel and blue display looks the mutts and just pips it to the post and would be in my basket 👌🏻👍🏼

Thanks buddy 🙏 The metal bracelet versions are possibly a bit too retro for my tastes but the great thing about this hobby is that we don't all have to like the same stuff and there's plenty of choice to satisfy all tastes!

Most people not familiar with computron watches, think it is one of those sports watches so popular today with health conscious people. I purchased an Oura ring in order to be able to still wear my watches .

I've wanted a silver and blue computron since I first discovered them in 2019, but can't bring myself to buy knowing I'll have to press that button every time I want to use it. Real shame.
