Floating down canal
It doesn't use numbers or moving hands
It always just says now
Now you may be thinking that I was had
But this watch is never wrong

Re: Bulova Devil Diver....
I like it, remember hearing about it happening, but never heard much other than it was going to happen. Is it out and available now? There's been a few Bulova models I remember seeing that were promising and then I never hear anything, then go to look and find out they're basically no longer available or hard to find in the first place.

I thought I saw one at our last GTG. It was cool but I just thought it looked like the og version.

I haven’t handled one but I personally think they killed this release. They look great.

Not sure about that cyclops.
I read a comment (with picture) on Amazon that the cyclops was mis-aligned with the date window,
that would not work well for me.

I like it but think that a 44mm case should should have 22mm lugs.

That green looks great.

Re: Bulova Devil Diver....
Nice looking re-edition, but my enthusiasm was dampened a little when I found out that it has a Miyota movement. I'd much rather own an original.

Re: Bulova Devil Diver....
Yes, I'm aware Citizen owns both Bulova and Miyotya. I had assumed that both re-editions (black and orange dial) were equipped with a Sellita SW 220 movement. After looking closer at the prices ($795. and $1,495), the reason for the difference was obvious.

Re: Bulova Devil Diver....
They should have at least used the 9015 movement. Maybe they thought the slower beat movement wouldn't give it a more 'vintage' vibe?

I'd like to see more pictures of the blue & orange in different light. But that one looks interesting

I meant last year’s re-editions.
