I’ve never heard a better explanation of my feeling toward quartz. I didn’t even realize I felt that way until I heard it. That’s exactly it.

Glad I am not alone! -Z

Own, wear and love the Bulova Lunar Pilot. Am about to buy the gold tone one. It is a beautiful piece

@Mr9Milly Месяц назад

For a watch paying homage to the 70's the only choice is the gold one. That butterscotch dial looks beautiful. Thank goodness Father's day is right around the corner 🤞

@AldoFelt 8 месяцев назад

My love is equal for quartz as it is for mechanical. Beautiful watch all around.

@nikkolomakaveli8295 8 месяцев назад

For the price that sweep is incredibly smooth. It’s a great fit.

@somewhereelse000 2 месяца назад

I collect quartz and mechanical, and my pick of the video's selection would be the tobacco sunburst with the rally strap. I just bought a mechanical Aerojet open heart model and now I want this! Damn!

@gianpakasa 8 месяцев назад

The movement is, indeed, much more nicer than the watch itself. Silver one winning the 🏆 here!!!

@lupodisol 8 месяцев назад

I like mechanical and quartz watches. Own both.

@AlexPytlarz 8 месяцев назад

Would go gold here, really hoping for a resurgence of gold plating in general!

@mdunn6900 8 месяцев назад

The quality of your videos is amazing. Great videography! And the watches are cool too:)

@marcusflack1523 8 месяцев назад

thanks so much. We aim high and its great to see that its noticed

@josephgittos3787 8 месяцев назад

Loved my old Bulova so regret swapping it for another watch , dont normally like gold watches but that gold one with that dial looks fantastic

@randyreynolds1045 8 месяцев назад

I have one of each and love them all❤

@akos.erdelyi 7 месяцев назад

neat review, great job. THX )

@beedeviled1896 8 месяцев назад

Love these! I’m leaning towards the UK only black dial version. Although, that butterscotch is awesome.

@Zsubocajp 5 месяцев назад

Crazy crazy good especially for the price

@hugomota3696 8 месяцев назад

I´ve got get a Bulova...but it has to be the Lunar Pilot. Btw, to cure the "dead beat" disdain, I recommend to just set all watches of the collection by the second and appreciate how the sweeping seconds of the mechanical are in sync with each beat of the quartz ones. To me, it opens my mind on the beauty and utility of both kinds of second hand, treating my snobbery :P

ENORMOUS

The silver is 🔥

@izwaspayne 8 месяцев назад

Beautiful watch with a sweeping hands and quartz movement so no need for it to died on the next day, what more could i ask for

@zevongrie1402 8 месяцев назад

All 3 variations are cool in their own way. The gold one was the first to catch my eye but I like the red one too. I like the sweeping second hand. One issue I have with some quartz watches is the seconds hand not matching up to the markers on the face when it moves. I know that is a nitpicky thing on my part, but it bothers me. This would alleviate that. Definitely would love to check these out in person.

@randyreynolds1045 8 месяцев назад

Love them all, but red would be my choice if i could only have one.

@sstaub 6 месяцев назад

Love these new Jet Star / Precisionist movement watches. I wish the second hand on my 43mm Lunar Pilot was as smooth as these are. Even though it's the same 262KHz beat rate, its nowhere near as smooth as these Jet Stars appear on video at least.

@Pegerod 3 месяца назад

Nice review and a great watch imo. Especially the gold/mustard with leather strap 🔥 btw what’s the item in leather pouch next to watches in the intro?

@eric21881 4 месяца назад

Yep caved on quartz for this Going with the red The way the white second hand contrasts accentuates the sweep Wish they used the tuning fork logo on the dial Wish they could make this movement solar charging

@kestrel1960 3 месяца назад

Have always favoured mechanical over standard quartz with the exception of quartz solar Bluetooth and atomic ones. Citizen and g-shock have fine examples which virtually negate the need for replacement batteries. However the precisionist movement is in an entirely different league. I already own the lunar pilot and had no hesitation in getting the silver limited edition Jet Star which is even better in the flesh. Buy it.

@user-km1cf1gs8x 8 месяцев назад

For a grab-and-go Quartz ? These are definitely worth taking a look at . The Limited Edition would be my 1st. pick . The Caramel Dial would look great in S/S . The Cpt. America is for the Brave Hearted 😂 Pity about the 50 ATM . A few Tweaks away from a Sports Watch contender , this . …… 👍 …. 👍

@tiagodvt 8 месяцев назад

I own over 20 watches, probably around 60% mechanical and 40%quartz. Various styles, various price ranges, etc. Quartz can be interesting! I own various digital watches, a Citizen JP2000 (which is basically a digital dive computer attached to a regular analog watch), regular quartz, a true GMT in quartz, chronographs, etc. Quartz can definitely give us complications at an affordable price and in facts various complications that would be impossible to have with mechanical movements. I also own this Jetstar, the one with the red dial. It makes me wonder why I still buy mechanical watches everytime I wear it. Why would we be so dumb to buy watches that have a less smooth seconds hand, are way less pratical, are way more expensive, need way more maintenance? But I guess we watch nerds are not driven by logic. And there's always something special about watches that working in purely mechanical ways. BUT the truth is that both technologies are interesting and can coexist.

@philip7922 8 месяцев назад

I'd love to get one. The dials just aren't to my taste. I'd like to see something a bit more classic, and hopefully a bit smaller, 38mm case

@JimLecinski 8 месяцев назад

no AR coating on the sapphire though. lots of reflective glare.

@rrowicki9442 3 месяца назад

Karmelek najlepszy

@dimasakbar7668 4 месяца назад

my qualms is the color only feature funkier combo. would love a reserved one.

@darrenak9378 8 месяцев назад

Its the movement more than anything that attracted me to this one. I have on order a more limited edition which is a collaboration with Complecto.

@Timeandtidewatches 8 месяцев назад

Love Jason and Complecto, a great LE as well! -Z

@Pacificaner 8 месяцев назад

Please share your thoughts about the Completco Special Edition. Curious on your view of how the watch face colors look in-person. The photos make the face seem to look like be light green silvery white blend.

@patrickdeboer1377 4 месяца назад

I used to disregard quartz for the same reason, couldn't stand it. Always went for as high BPH as possible automatic movement, untill I came across the bulova and I am now wearing the gold Jet star. I did find it the colour doesn't go with everything so I have to buy another , the horror :P

@pandatrip8307 7 месяцев назад

Im debating between the yellow gold dial and the blood red dial.

@bathrat Месяц назад

@2:45 what is that blue strap you put on there? I like it.

@timrosenthal46 5 месяцев назад

The red/maroon dial version or the butterscotch a close second ..

@nikr1d3r32 8 месяцев назад

Bulova should loose the “262khz” from the dial and just leave the symbol on top is my opinion if you want to convert quartz snobs 😬

@Timeandtidewatches 8 месяцев назад

Less dial text never hurts an offering for sure -Z

@marcusflack1523 8 месяцев назад

yeah I gotta agree with you on this one

@tdrawley 4 месяца назад

I’ve just ordered the red. I normally only really like self sustaining watches, so auto , wind up, and solar such as g-shocks solar and citizens eco drives. But to be honest I’ve been looking at this watch for a while because of the 16 beat per minute - 262kh tech. Plus I love the watch aesthetic. Red dials are a rarity and I like them but the crimson on this watch is much closer to my favourite colour. It’s funny, I’m protan sighted (red/green colour blind) but I love red or green watche dials more than any other coloured dials. Apart from maybe the blue ceramic dials that change colour depending on the background light. Dials like the yema superman blue auto , or the baltany explorer with the blue ceramic dial and 10 year battery life.

@tdrawley 4 месяца назад

These last two go purple in natural light. Beautiful.

@abhinaybuiss 4 месяца назад

I'm torn between the red and the gold dial. If anyone is listening, my dream watch would be the one with solar powered battery, radio controlled with sweeping second hand, titanium dial, back case and band and of course sapphire crystal. 😂😂😂

@jaysp1910 8 месяцев назад

Really like the look of the limited edition version of these but why only 50m not 100mwater resistance?

@Timeandtidewatches 8 месяцев назад

50m is totally adequate for surface swimming, but I agree 100m would have been even better! -Z

@felixadanpasos 6 месяцев назад

I prefer mechanical, but I disagree with the claim some say that Quartz watches have "no soul". Well, this Bulova has gears and jewels (8) like a mechanical one and... definitely has a beat!

@rabadabadoo491 8 месяцев назад

I'd go gold

@MathewBT81 8 месяцев назад

That ☕ has me 🤤😅

@crypt0gh0stph38 7 месяцев назад

For me the precisionist movement is perfection. Very low maintenance. I can buy a battery for cheap price and swap it by myself. No need to hire a watchmaker to do the typical automatic watch maintenance.

@TheRealBrook1968 Месяц назад

Own the gold tone and wear it one day / wkeek.

@danieltaylor4475 8 месяцев назад

Does this have a similar smooth sweep to a GS spring drive?

@DarrenBates 8 месяцев назад

Not quite. More akin to high beat automatic rather than the imperceptible sweep of a spring drive. But for 600 it's an incredible movement.

@Timeandtidewatches 8 месяцев назад

Darren is on the money 👆🏻

@marcusflack1523 8 месяцев назад

Darren is THE MAN@@Timeandtidewatches

@tiagodvt 8 месяцев назад

This ticks 16 times a second. A regular 3hz mechanical movement 6 and a 4hz 8. Even a 5hz movement, which is rare to find, ticks 10 times. These things are obviously hard to see with a naked eye, but if you film them in slow motion, even with a phone, you'll see it. You can definitely tell the difference with this Bulova and it is ultra smooth. BUT no, not like a GS. GS doesn't really tick and it is forever gliding. It is a completely unique movement "style".
