Bulova Black Dial Leather Strap Racer Chronograph 98B427

Owners praise the Bulova Black Dial Leather Strap Racer Chronograph 98B427 for its fresh racing chronograph designs and dial aesthetics. Some owners find the 42mm case size larger than preferred. The faux-rally strap's non-functional perforations are noted, and one owner suggests the chronograph function may only track seconds, not fractions. Some anticipate price drops due to its quartz movement. Overall, owners rate the Bulova Black Dial Leather Strap Racer Chronograph 98B427 positively for its racing-inspired dial aesthetics, though some find the case size large and the strap design questionable.

Duxot Accelero Chronograph

Owners widely praise the Duxot Accelero Chronograph for its excellent finishing, precise Seiko VK63 meca-quartz movement, and well-aligned indices. The 40mm case with a 20mm lug width and bead-blasted stainless steel finish is noted as fitting comfortably, with some appreciating the AR-coated sapphire crystal. The deep green dial can appear black in certain lighting conditions. One owner found the watch for $450, questioning its value despite the functioning movement. On balance, owners rate the Duxot Accelero Chronograph highly for its build quality and meca-quartz movement at its price point.
