Nice to meet you all. I am a long time watch collector, and recent reviewer. I review watches on my YT channel TheWatchMission. I like all kinds of watches from manual to autos to quartz to hybrids. I...

Looks nice. The name is very long and doesn't sound very well thought out.
I anyways need digital so I don't care much if it sweeps or peeps of fleeps.
Love it! The more that become available in the marketplace, the better for us collectors!
The Bulova Precisionist is the king of the quartz sweeping seconds, IMHO. Unfortunately, I'm not a fan of the styling of the product, I respect the movement though.

@AboutVintage this guy is talking smack about your name!
So exactly why is this Seiko VH31 not more commonly used? Do they just not crank them out like the NH35? And what are the other mass-manufactured (ahem, affordable) movements like this today?

I'm just saying there's a reason why it's called "Seiko" and not "This is Seiko - A company by John Seiko."
Agree with @SurferJohn , I have an Accutron II in my collection for it’s history, movement and cool smooth second hand. Style and finish limit it’s wrist time though.
I have my eye on these watches with the green turtle initiative… i think the design is great and mission to save baby turtle is cool. Oh and of course…the sweeping hnd quartz is awesome. No need to buy automatic anymore …perhaps?

What about the bulova lunar pilot? Does it has the same sweeping second hand movement?

I owned one of these, the chronograph running seconds sweeps, the running seconds in the sundial does not. I thought that was a ripoff.
Still happy for your blue 1926 turtle?🐢
this 1972 Bulova Accutron has a super smooth second sweep
