The automatic watch is the epicenter of watch-making tradition. Usually, we embrace that, but sometimes it's nice to see a thoroughly modern take on the automatic. The Bulova Men's Modern Millenia Automatic Ceramic Watch (shown below) is a three-hand 21-jewel automatic with a partial open aperture in the front and an exhibition caseback revealing the mechanism.

The watch features a ceramic case and bracelet, an edge-to-edge domed crystal, gold-tone accent markings, and a classic subdial with a second hand. The watch has a 42-hour power reserve when fully wound. The watch case is 41.5mm in diameter and it stands a little tall at 13.2mm thick. One Amazon reviewer noted that the lug-to-lug measurement of this watch is a little large at 53.8mm. By having only a partial aperture on the watch face, the watch is more readable than a full skeleton watch and there is room for the vaunted Bulova tuning fork logo.

Overall, this Bulova is a modern watch from a known brand at a good price. Check it out here on Amazon. There's only one problem. The seller says there is only one left!
