A stainless steel case and a mother-of-pearl dial is what the Bulova 96L354 is built around, in a mid-sized case. It measures 38 mm across. Case and Wrist Presence \n Case diameter is 38 mm, worked in stainless steel. The surface treatment is polished. At 38 mm this is a mid-sized case that reads as unisex, and it wears easily on most wrists. \n Reading the Dial \n The face is finished in mother-of-pearl. \n Movement and Functions \n A quartz analog movement drives the watch. \n \n Date display – the current date at a glance \n Water resistance – 3 ATM (30 metres) \n Sapphire crystal – protecting the dial \n \n Water Resistance and Everyday Durability \n The watch is rated to 3 ATM, or 30 metres of static pressure. That covers rain and incidental splashes. Take it off before you shower or swim. Make sure the crown is fully seated before any contact with water. \n A sapphire crystal protects the dial – the most scratch-resistant option short of diamond, and the reason the dial still looks new after years of wear. \n Who This Watch Suits \n \n Anyone who wants a mid-sized case that works across genders and occasions \n Building a mother-of-pearl-led accessory wardrobe \n Gift buyers looking for something recognisable, boxed and properly warranted \n \n Styling Notes \n Mother-of-pearl is the defining note here, and the easiest way to wear it is to let it be the only strong colour on the wrist. \n Care and Maintenance \n None of the care below is onerous. It is the difference between a watch that ages well and one that simply gets old. Keep it away from the shower and the pool – the rating here covers splashes, not immersion. Store it away from magnets and out of direct heat, and it will hold its rate and its finish. \n About the Brand and Ownership \n Bulova watches sit in the sweet spot between fashion and function: recognisable design, real build quality, and a price that does not ask you to think of the watch as an investment. Kept out of direct heat, away from magnets and wiped down after a sweaty day, a watch like this will outlast several phones. \n The Short Version \n What you are getting is a case that wears close and stays out of the way. It is not trying to be a heirloom piece and it does not price itself like one. It is a well-made, recognisable watch that does the job every day and looks considered doing it. \n Technical Specifications \n \n Attribute Specification \n Brand Bulova \n Model / Reference 96L354 \n Gender Unisex (38 mm case) \n EAN 5347067703167 \n Case Diameter 38 mm \n Case Material Stainless steel \n Case Finish Polished \n Dial Colour Mother-of-pearl \n Crystal Sapphire \n Movement Quartz analog \n Water Resistance 3 ATM / 30 metres \n Country of Origin DE \n \n Buying With Confidence \n Buying a watch online comes down to trusting the seller, so here is exactly what you get.
