Bulova Marine Star Special Edition 6-Hand Chronograph – Model 98B451
Discover the perfect fusion of heritage design and high-performance timekeeping with the Bulova Marine Star Special Edition Chronograph 98B451. Inspired by Bulova’s iconic 1970s Marine Star collection, this men’s stainless steel chronograph watch combines classic nautical aesthetics with cutting-edge Precisionist movement technology—making it a standout piece for collectors and modern watch enthusiasts alike.
Heritage-Inspired Design with a Modern Twist
Crafted from durable silver-tone stainless steel, the 98B451 features a bold 42.85mm case paired with a black dial accented by white numerals and Super-LumiNova®-filled hands for excellent low-light visibility. The red and black unidirectional bezel adds a sporty touch, while the Marine Star anchor logo on the case back reinforces its seafaring roots. A double-domed sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating ensures clarity and protection, even in rugged conditions.
Advanced 6-Hand Chronograph with Precisionist Movement
At the heart of this special edition watch is Bulova’s NP20 high-frequency quartz movement, which vibrates at 262 kHz—eight times faster than standard quartz for ultra-precise timekeeping. The 6-hand chronograph function measures up to 1/20th of a second and includes three subdials for elapsed time tracking, as well as a convenient date display.
Durability for Everyday and Marine Use
Engineered for adventure, the Bulova Marine Star 98B451 offers 200 metres of water resistance, a screw-down crown, and a robust case thickness of approximately 14.8mm. The matching stainless steel bracelet features a fold-over clasp with push buttons and diver’s extension, ensuring a secure and comfortable fit during water sports or everyday wear.
