Overview
The Bulova 96B413 combines classic dress aesthetics with sporty function in a format that suits everyday life and weekends. The 41 mm steel body alternates between brushed and polished surfaces, while the green dial provides a modern color accent with clear indexes and luminous hands under sapphire crystal. The chronograph sub-register and a discreet date window complete the expression. 3 ATM is enough for rain splashes and an active city life.
Comfort
Despite the chronograph’s obvious presence, the 96B413 is easy to wear thanks to its slim 9.7mm height and well-balanced case profile. The crocodile-embossed black leather strap quickly molds to the wrist and provides good ventilation during movement, while the buckle clasp provides a secure closure. The flat case back reduces pressure points, so the watch slides under the cuff and sits comfortably all day, even on long workdays.
Summary
The 96B413 is a versatile dress/sport chronograph where quartz-powered calm, sapphire crystal and steel quality meet a contemporary green dial. Date and clear sub-registers provide practical utility, while 3 ATM protects against everyday splashes. The combination of brushed and polished steel, a slim profile and a leather strap with a buckle clasp creates a stylish package that works from boardrooms to evening dinners without compromising on comfort or precision.
