Whether navigating waitlists or wading into the murky gray market, buying a great watch can be difficult. That’s why, for the sake of one’s wallet (and sanity), many set their sights on reasonably-priced timepieces from highly-regarded brands like Seiko, Hamilton, and Citizen. Bulova is among the best on this list, and recently, one of its most popular dive watches received a tremendous discount.

Right now, a popular Bulova Marine Star 'Series B' quartz watch is on sale for $201—a 43% discount on the normal $350 price. This watch has earned over 350 five-star ratings from stylish shoppers who have called it "intrinsically handsome" and the "perfect size." The savings are significant, leaving you with enough scratch to pick up a G-Shock or a couple of Timex watches to occasionally switch things up.

This watch is a hefty 43mm, but the black face and stainless steel case give it a simple and sleek look that's perfect for any dressy or casual outfit. It has a three-hand design and a date window and features a rotating bezel that lets you measure elapsed time (and is also fun to fidget with). In keeping with the nautical theme, it’s water-resistant up to 100 meters, which makes it capable of handling a swim. It’s also powered by a quartz movement, making it an accurate and low-maintenance option.

Shoppers were impressed with the looks and quality of the watch. “I've worn this watch almost every day for the last year and absolutely love it," a shopper said. "It looks just as much at home in formal wear at work as it does out on the weekends or working on my car.”

Others were impressed with how the watch compared to more expensive timepieces, with one writing, “Everyone always thinks it is a Rolex until they stare at it long enough.” Another shopper called it a “good travel watch to replace your Rolex Submariner,” adding, “The quality is really good and it really looks like a Sub.”

If you’re looking for an affordable watch from a trusted brand, this Bulova Marine Star is a steal at just $201 and it’s a great watch to wear in any setting. The sale is only live for a limited time, so if this is the right one for your style, pick it up before the clock runs out.
