Product Information

Full details

The Bulova Marine Star Series B is an ideal timepiece for individuals seeking a blend of professional elegance and rugged utility. Featuring a striking red dial and a durable stainless steel construction, it offers reliable automatic timekeeping for everyday wear or aquatic activities. While it provides excellent craftsmanship and 200-meter water resistance, potential buyers should note that as an automatic watch, it requires regular movement or a watch winder to remain powered when not worn for extended periods.

FAQs

Does this watch require a battery?

No, this is an automatic watch powered by your movement.

Can I wear this watch while swimming?

Yes, with a 200-meter water resistance rating, it is suitable for swimming and snorkeling.

What is the case diameter?

The case diameter is 41mm.

How do I clean the stainless steel bracelet?

Use a soft cloth dipped in warm, soapy water to remove debris, then rinse and dry thoroughly.

Is the watch face scratch-resistant?

Yes, it uses a sapphire crystal, which is one of the most scratch-resistant materials available for watch dials.

How often should it be serviced?

It is recommended to have an automatic watch serviced by a professional every 3 to 5 years.

Troubleshooting

The watch stopped running.

Manually wind the crown clockwise 20-30 times and wear the watch to generate power through kinetic energy.

The time is inaccurate.

Automatic watches may gain or lose a few seconds per day. If the deviation is significant, it may require professional regulation.

The date changes at noon instead of midnight.

Pull the crown out to the time-setting position and advance the hands forward by 12 hours to synchronize the internal clock.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Durable sapphire crystal is highly scratch-resistant
  • Versatile 41mm size fits most wrist profiles comfortably
  • Strong 200-meter water resistance rating
  • Eye-catching dial design
  • Reliable automatic movement avoids battery maintenance

Cons

  • Automatic movement may stop if not worn for several days
  • Stainless steel can accumulate visible surface scratches over time
  • Heavier feel compared to titanium or resin alternatives
  • Requires professional servicing periodically to maintain accuracy

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setting up your Marine Star is straightforward: unscrew the crown if applicable, pull it out to the first or second click to adjust the date and time, and push it back in firmly to ensure the water-resistant seal is maintained. For care, rinse the stainless steel bracelet with fresh water after exposure to salt water to prevent mineral buildup. Avoid exposing the watch to extreme magnetic fields, which can interfere with the hairspring of an automatic movement. If the watch gathers dust or oils, use a soft, lint-free cloth to gently buff the sapphire crystal and case.
