Owners widely praise the Bulova Black Skeleton Dial Black IP Bracelet Automatic 98A147 for its cool, monochromatic aesthetic and the visible skeletonized automatic movement. Many appreciate its value, especially when purchased at a discount, and find the case and bracelet appealing. One owner notes the watch arrived in immaculate condition. However, the hands can blend into the busy dial, hindering legibility, and the proprietary lug design requires custom straps. The gunmetal IP coating is also reported to be prone to scratching. On balance, owners rate the Bulova Black Skeleton Dial Black IP Bracelet Automatic 98A147 highly for its striking skeleton dial design and perceived value.
