Icon : 98B229

The Bulova 98B229, released in 2018 as part of the Icon Collection, is a notable timepiece that combines precision and style. The watch features a robust stainless steel case with a gunmetal grey ion-plated finish, measuring 46.5 mm in diameter. Its black multi-level carbon fiber dial is accented by luminous hour and minute hands as well as luminous markers, ensuring readability in various lighting conditions. The chronograph function offers precise timing to 1/1000th of a second and comes with a continuous-sweep second hand, adding an element of sophistication. It also includes practical features such as a calendar, screw-back case, and screw-down crown for enhanced durability. The watch is powered by Bulova's proprietary three-prong quartz crystal Precisionist movement, operating at a vibrational frequency of 262kHz—eight times greater than standard quartz watches—for exceptional accuracy. The double-press fold-over clasp with safety lock ensures the watch stays secure on the wrist.
