Default Watch: Bulova or Seiko?
I have a number of Skagen watches, and while I love them, I have had issues with ALL of them. First was a cracked crystal, then a split leather band, now it's the links (of watch #3) coming apart. I bought a cheap stainless watch to wear, but now the clasp on that one is no longer "locking" properly. I don't want to spend a fortune on a watch, but I want something that looks nice and professional. Which watch is a better buy: Bulova or Seiko? Pros and cons welcome! Thanks!

I have a Bulova, I have a Seiko too. Performance wise I would say they are comparable but I like the way my Bulova looks much better. You may want to look at teh Citizen watches that run on solar power too. the Eco drive. I didn't get any because I couldn't find any big enough in my price range. I love my new watch *Pictures*

I think both watches are made to last, but I think Bulovas are better looking.

I have both and really like both, but for me a Seiko is more classic looking and a Bulova is usually a little bigger and more of the moment. It just depends on what you're looking for!
