Pros & Cons
Pros
It's both automatic (self winding) but can be wound by the stem as well. It has a very reliable miyota automatic movement, with a nice sweeping second hand.
The 38mm case wears very well on the wrist. The dial is on the small side, which is sort of a relief from the oversized wristwatches. My only gripe about the watch is actually the band.
The strap is made of supple leather. The packaging is gift quality. The power reserve is great for a watch in this price level. The only flaw is the leather strap.
The watch keeps time very well, i have only set mine once, which was the day i got it. Every few days i notice that the watch gains approximately ten seconds. I simply synchronize the watch to the time on my phone which takes a few seconds and i'm goo... Read More
The bulova hack is a great example of the wwii field watch. The dark background version is the more faithful design as the original milspec specifically called for that. The watch is compatible with wwii and hamilton.

Tritium luminosity is so faint as to be almost useless. My omega has the same ailment. The band is cheap and garbage.
Highlights
Quality
The strap is a good quality leather and has held up well so far
It’s a great watch real simple and i can feel the quality that went into making it
All the modern compasses are way to big a bulky for this strap
After a few days just reset it or because of the name and history of the watch you can 34hack34 it
Price
I feel like theres a ton of value for the price i paid here and im very happy with this watch
I was able to get this on prime day for around 150 which is a steal
This models full retail price is about 450
It typically sells for about 350 that was the online price for the manufacturer last time i checked and i got it for a little more than 200
Shipping
Watch arrived quickly and in the box with all the appropriate paperwork
I ordered the bulova military heritage hack watch and it arrived the very next day
Seller did a great job with shipping problem
Packaging/appearance
The crystal is box domed and is a very nice touch
Competitiveness
It’s closest competitor has to be the hamilton field khaki and this is a great alternative
Accuracy is pretty good in comparison to both my hamilton khaki mechanical and field automatic
But to get better water resistance or a better mechanical movement in a similar watch youd need likely need to step up to a ham... Read More
Hamilton has focused on its khaki line but most watch manufacturers did their bit for the war effort
