Bulova Men's Series X High Precision Quartz Chronograph Watch, Sapphire Crystal, Continous Sweeping Secondhand

Items Description

The Bulova Men's Series X High Precision Quartz Chronograph Watch represents a bold fusion of architectural design and cutting-edge horology. Anchored by Bulova’s proprietary 262kHz Precisionist movement, this timepiece delivers an accuracy of seconds per year—a feat unmatched by standard quartz calibers. The model 98B356, featuring a striking black dial with skeleton-cut details and a matching leather strap, is built for those who demand both precision and a distinctive visual identity.

 

At the heart of the Series X lies the NN50 HPQ Precisionist movement, a 3-pronged quartz crystal oscillating at 262 kHz—eight times the frequency of conventional quartz. This extraordinary rate produces a continuously sweeping second hand that glides with fluid, mechanical-like motion, while the 1/1000th second chronograph offers an unprecedented level of timing granularity. The watch is housed in a rugged stainless steel case with a curved, anti-reflective sapphire crystal, ensuring clarity in any light. With 50 meters of water resistance and a screw-down case back, the Series X is as durable as it is innovative.

 

Key Advantages of the Bulova Men's Series X High Precision Quartz Chronograph Watch, Sapphire Crystal, Continous Sweeping Secondhand

 

1. The Ultra-High Frequency Precisionist Movement

The defining innovation of the Bulova Series X is the Precisionist caliber, which sets a new benchmark for quartz accuracy. This movement uses a unique three-pronged crystal vibrating at 262 kHz, translating to a drift of only seconds per year rather than the typical monthly deviation of standard quartz watches.

 

• Frequency: 262 kHz – eight times higher than standard quartz, delivering extreme precision.
• Accuracy: Within seconds per year, eliminating the need for frequent adjustments.
• Sweeping Hand: The high vibration rate produces a perfectly continuous, gliding second hand that mimics a mechanical sweep.
• Chronograph Precision: Measures elapsed time to 1/1000th of a second via the subdial counter.

 

2. Curved Sapphire Crystal and Anti-Reflective Coating

The Series X features a domed sapphire crystal that is both highly scratch-resistant and treated with an anti-reflective coating. This curved shape follows the contour of the case, giving the watch a sleek, integrated profile while maximizing legibility.

 

• Scratch Resistance: Sapphire is second only to diamond in hardness, protecting the dial from daily wear.
• Anti-Reflective Treatment: Reduces glare in bright conditions, ensuring the dial remains readable outdoors or under direct light.
• Curved Profile: The gentle dome aligns with the case design, reducing reflections and adding a premium aesthetic.

 

3. Distinctive Skeleton Dial and Architectural Design

Beyond its technical prowess, the Series X makes a bold style statement. The open-worked dial reveals glimpses of the Precisionist movement’s internal components, while the faceted hour markers and multi-level subdials create a layered, almost industrial look. The 43mm stainless steel case is brushed and polished, balancing modern toughness with everyday wearability.

 

• Skeleton Openings: Strategic cutouts on the dial expose the movement, adding visual depth.
• Faceted Markers: Angular, polished indices catch light from every angle, enhancing readability.
• Case Finish: Alternating brushed and polished surfaces give the watch a dynamic appearance.

 

4. 1/1000th Second Chronograph and Calendar

The chronograph on the Series X is not just precise but also practical. A dedicated subdial registers elapsed time to the thousandth of a second, while the main hands track standard hours, minutes, and seconds. A two-tone calendar window at the 4 o’clock position adds daily utility without cluttering the dial.

 

• Chronograph Resolution: 1/1000th second—ideal for timing fast events or comparing splits.
• Date Window: Positioned at 4:00, with alternating black/white display for quick legibility.
• Push-Piece Action: Crisp push buttons control start, stop, and reset functions.

 

The Bulova Men’s Series X High Precision Quartz Chronograph Watch elevates quartz technology to a level that rivals high-end mechanical movements. Its 262kHz Precisionist caliber delivers extraordinary accuracy and a mesmerizing sweep, while the curved sapphire crystal and skeleton dial provide a modern, rugged aesthetic. With a 1/1000th second chronograph, 50-meter water resistance, and premium materials throughout, the Series X is a statement of precision engineering and contemporary design.
