Bulova Black Dial Leather Strap Racer Chronograph 98B427vsRoue CHR

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.

The Roue CHR is praised for its unique, sand-blasted black-PVD case and sapphire crystal, considered superior for its price. Owners note its 41.5mm cushion case is surprisingly light and comfortable, fitting smaller wrists well, though it wears slightly larger. The unconventional dial layout with yellow hashes evokes a vintage racecar dashboard, with one owner highlighting the champagne dial's offset to the hands on its oval case. A drawback is the lack of lume on the main hands. The Roue CHR uses a Miyota 6S10 quartz movement and is water-resistant to 100m. Overall, owners rate the Roue CHR highly for its distinctive design and quality finishing at its price point.
