Bulova Watches

I started collecting Bulova watches about 5 years ago when my cheap quartz watched died on me again. I got my late father's 1967 Bulova automatic watch out of a drawer and shook it a couple of times. It started ticking away and that sold me on mechanical watches. Mybulova.com has been my go-to site to indentify the watches in my collection. Their data base of Bulova models, movements, and ads is unmatched. Ignore the 1 star reviews about back-biting from the panel members because they were all written by back-biting panel members.If you use the site to increase your knowledge about, and love of, Bulova watches, you will be safe!

I got the Bulova Marine Star which is supposedly rated for deep diving. I wore it in 5 feet of water and it leaked and stopped working. Took it back where I bought it and they wanted to charge $75 to fix it. I eventually found another place to fix it for $50 but the watch is not even worth that much since I cannot wear it in the water. Bulova itself does not offer any kind of guarantee or exchange if their watch does not do what it was designed to do.

A click of a very few know it all windbags. They treat the new guys like $#*!. The owner of the site can go and change things at will he reads you personal emails. Once you post a watch here it is yours no longer you can not edit it or delete it.
Once a very nice place has turned into a joke.
If you are a Bulova collector use the information as a guest to join is to be talked down to
One member fifth ave. Is the biggest pompus $#*! i have ever met. He steals pictures and information to claim as his own. There are a few good guys here but most have left this site for others.
My advice would be to use this site for information but do not join. If you do join you will see in very short order what this site is a big Joke!

I'm new here, didn't know this site (sitejabber) even existed until seeing a link posted for here on a watch forum site (thanks rgb). There was a discussion about claims made as fact on another website (mybulova) concerning a watch refered to as "Lone Eagle". Long story made short, another member on the forum who had investigated (researched) the claims posted actual facts, not the falshoods, which didn't set well with the person listed above. Since I don't mind doing my own research I visited this site, dug through old archives, posts, and the watch database. After 5 days of doing this, I can tell you that this site is certainly a "clic" of only a handful of members (who sometimes appear particularlly nasty to new members and each other) and their database has more holes, voids, and discrepancies, than Swiss Cheese. Although they have a great AD database.

Watch is 2 months old and crystal scratches are terrible.
Not like previous Bulovas I have owned.
Very disappointed.

MyBulova is still living with the shame for once having the Web Cancer known to everyone as bobbee aka kiddo kipps akaJANEY aka SkankHunt42 aka benderbending aka tedward aka Bobbee53 aka coryt aka TruthSeeker aka thumbs aka watch junkie aka hawk53 aka kiddo kipps aka harvey aka Fraud seeker aka FakeFinder aka (many more). That lying lunatic has lost all grip on reality and he has become the watch worlds biggest troll! He's been banned from every watch forum many times over but he just keeps on make up new names to pursue his trolling aspirations which has completely destroyed any shred of credibility he had left, He is so well known for his fake "screen grabs" as he calls them and his use of Photoshop to altar images to fit his narrative of the day that he is no longer welcome at the place he once called home watchuseek! He is just a tiny little boy with a ax to grind and he is without a doubt a Web Cancer in the colon of the internet!

I would give this site zero stars if I could. It is pure garbage. The two people who keep it limping along--the owner/administrator Stephen Ollman and his pathetic friend Mark Lawrence, who goes by Fifth Avenue Restorations on the site--are the two who have completely ruined the site for everyone else. The two of them keep making everything the site was supposed to be into a total joke. It's an embarrassment to the Web.

Case in point: the latest rehashing of the ads recently found for a new Lone Eagle model. They don't want to believe the ads, so what do they do? Instead of coming up with even one rational argument against them, they do things like find other newspaper ads that contain errors and claim that because there was one error in one ad, the four consistent Lone Eagle ads must all be wrong. Then they follow that up with claiming that all the old newspaper ads are unreliable, yet you can find dozens upon dozens of watch listings in the database that rely on those very ads as the sole basis of the identification. Some of those watches belong to Mark Lawrence/Fifth Avenue, who is the very one claiming that they are all unreliable. That "reasoning" is so stupid it is funny. That's a perfect example of the complete lack of intelligent thought you will find on myBulova. Those people claim to be experts, but they clearly know nothing whatsoever about Bulova watches, and they have no clue how to look objectively at evidence and draw a reasonable conclusion. Clearly neither of them ever took a basic logic class somewhere in their pathetic excuse for an education. This kind of junk is what's being offered to watch collectors on that site. NO THANKS!

Mark Lawrence has been known to admit that he only says things on that site to see who he can upset. He says things that he knows are not true. He has also been known to call his buddy, Stephen, a moron, and an example of how you "can't fix stupid" and has commented on how most of what Stephen says is wrong. Mark has said these things in writing. If Stephen is mostly wrong and Mark always agrees with him, then they are in the same boat regarding the stupidity bit. And while saying all those things about Stephen, Mark acts like they are best buds so that he doesn't get thrown off the site for insulting everyone and running off anyone with a rational thought. Could you be more two-faced? Could you be any more blind, Stephen? Mark makes the entire site a very sad joke on all who go there. He ought to stick with bragging on Twitter about how he "dates" his teenage daughter's friends. At least then he's being honest about which body part he's "thinking" with.

IBM recently published an article expressing the belief that 80% of the data in the world is wrong. They must have been spending time on myBulova.
