Bulova Jetstar 96B414, first day out in the wilds.

Thanks for sharing this beauty! I'm seriously considering buying this grey version of the Jet Star as it's currently at 308 Euros in my neck of the woods. I have a stupid question: do you save on the battery when the crown isn't pushed in? I just want to prolong the battery life when I'm not wearing it.

Hi Al, glad you enjoyed the share! I've only had this watch for a week! So I couldn't comment on battery life. However not driving the hands will absolutely reduce the drain, and the watch is shipped with a crown spacer for this exact reason. You could use this when in the box. It will be interesting to see how long it lasts for me as I'm not doing that..
