Bulova has created a really beautiful watch in the Marine Star 96B256. It’s metallic blue sunburst dial gives the oceanic look to it, complementing the “Marine Star” name of the line up of watches. Having a diver’s watch and chronograph elements make the watch looks more busy, but elegant and modernly styled.

The usage of white markers/hands and the orange accents (on the subdial hands, main seconds hand tip, date) really complement the blue dial beautifully. It’s like a work of art! Around the outer ring of the dial are minute markings that can be used to track diving time. This outer ring can be rotated by using the crown at top left (10 o’clock) position. The outer chapter ring is sloped from the dial to the crystal giving a nice 3-D effect.

This Marine Star is packed with diver’s watch look details. It has big index markers and sword hands for optimum visibility. On top of them, lume are applied exhaustively for usage in low light situations. The biggest attraction is of course the marine blue dial, applied with a metallic sunburst effect on the watch face. It just looks totally gorgeous!

The polished stainless steel case really just make the Marine Star looks great. The 43 mmdiameter case is not too big nor too small, a good size for many men’s wrist. It has a thickness of 13 mm which is just average for a chronograph. The lug width is 22 mm and attached to a stainless steel bracelet.
