Review

The Bulova Aerojet 97A136 is a sophisticated watch that embodies the timeless elegance and precision that Bulova is famous for. Introduced in 2018, this model captures the essence of classic watchmaking with a modern twist. Designed for discerning gentlemen, the Aerojet 97A136 seamlessly combines style, functionality and durability, making it a versatile addition to any watch collection.

At first glance, the Bulova Aerojet 97A136 stands out with its stylish, round stainless steel case. With a diameter of 41 millimeters and a thickness of 11.7 millimeters, the case strikes a perfect balance between presence and wearability. The mineral glass dial window offers reliable protection against scratches and minor bumps, ensuring that the watch retains its flawless appearance over time. Adorned with minimalistic markers and hands, the silver dial exudes sleek elegance that is both timeless and contemporary.

The watch features a push button clasp that enhances both security and ease of use. This type of buckle ensures that the watch stays securely on the wrist, ensuring safety in everyday use. The brown leather strap, which is 20 millimeters wide and fits regular men's wrists, complements the silver dial beautifully. The combination of brown leather and silver stainless steel gives the watch a versatile aesthetic; making it suitable for a variety of situations.

Beneath its stylish exterior, the Bulova Aerojet 97A136 is powered by the Miyota 82S0 automatic movement. Known for its reliability and precision, this movement provides the watch with accurate timekeeping and the convenience of an automatic winding function. The open heart design on the dial allows the movement to be seen in motion, giving the watch an interesting and mechanical appeal. This feature not only highlights the craftsmanship of its creation but also attracts the attention of those who appreciate the art of watchmaking.

A notable aspect of the Aerojet 97A136 is its water resistance of 100 feet (30 meters). Although not suitable for swimming or diving, this water resistance ensures that the watch can withstand splashes such as washing hands or rain as well as a brief immersion in water. This makes it a practical choice for everyday use and ensures durability and longevity in a variety of environments.

Although the watch does not have a calendar function, the elegant second hand feature that glides smoothly across the dial makes up for this. This adds to the overall functionality and aesthetics of the watch. Weighing only 2.08 ounces, the Aerojet 97A136 is lightweight and comfortable on the wrist, making it ideal for long-term use. Its combination of classic design, reliable movement and practical features makes it a standout piece in Bulova's Aerojet collection.
