Items Description

Part of the Millennia collection, this model combines a black dial with a silver tone stainless steel bracelet, creating a versatile timepiece that transitions easily from boardroom meetings to evening engagements.

Key Advantages of the Bulova Men's Modern - 96E117

 

1. Reliable Quartz Movement and Dependable Timekeeping

The Bulova Men's Modern - 96E117 runs on a precise quartz movement, a technology that has defined Bulova's reputation for accuracy since the 1960s. This movement ensures consistent timekeeping without the need for winding or daily adjustment, making it a practical choice for professionals who simply need a watch that works.

 

• Quartz Accuracy: Battery-powered movement keeps time within seconds per month.
• Minimal Maintenance: Requires only periodic battery replacement every few years.
• 3-Hand Display: Hour, minute, and central seconds hands provide a clean, uncluttered dial layout.

 

2. Refined Black Dial with High Legibility

The black dial of the 96E117 is engineered for clarity and visual impact. Silver tone applied markers and matching hands stand out sharply against the dark background, a configuration that also pairs well with formal attire. The date window at 3 o'clock adds practical utility without disrupting the dial's symmetry.

 

• Applied Markers: Three-dimensional indices catch light at different angles, enhancing depth perception.
• Date Complication: Quick-set date display for daily scheduling convenience.
• Anti-Glare Design: Curved mineral crystal minimizes reflections during indoor and outdoor use.

 

3. Durable Stainless Steel Bracelet and Case Construction

The full silver tone stainless steel construction delivers both longevity and a polished appearance that resists tarnishing. The bracelet secures with a fold-over clasp, offering a comfortable yet secure fit for all-day wear. This material choice also ensures the watch retains its aesthetic appeal over years of regular use.

 

• 43mm Case: A mid-large case size that suits most wrist dimensions while maintaining a smart presence.
• Bracelet Links: Adjustable links allow for a customized fit, with additional links available from Bulova.
• Scratch Resistance: Stainless steel surfaces withstand everyday abrasion better than plated alternatives.

 

4. Water Resistance for Everyday Situations

While not designed for swimming or diving, the 96E117 offers water resistance that covers typical daily encounters. This practical rating protects the movement from accidental splashes, rain exposure, and hand washing, providing peace of mind without the bulk of a dive watch.

 

• Daily Protection: Suitable for hand washing, light rain, and accidental splashes.
• Not for Water Sports: Avoid swimming, showering, or high-pressure water exposure.
• Durable Gasket: Maintains integrity for the life of the watch with normal care.

 

5. Versatile Design Language from the Millennia Collection

The Millennia collection has long represented Bulova's commitment to classic, timeless design executed with modern manufacturing standards. The 96E117 exemplifies this philosophy through its clean lines, balanced proportions, and restrained color palette. The silver on black combination ensures compatibility with both business suits and casual weekend attire.

 

• Neutral Palette: Silver and black tones coordinate with virtually any wardrobe.
• Dress-to-Casual Range: Equally at home in formal events and everyday office environments.
• Timeless Styling: Avoids trend-driven design elements that can age quickly.

 

The Bulova Men's Modern - 96E117 is best suited for working professionals and watch enthusiasts who want a straightforward, reliable dress watch without unnecessary complications. Its quartz accuracy, stainless steel build, and high-contrast black dial deliver essential functionality in a package that remains easy to wear and care for.
