This is not an independant review site, as it once was.
It now does nothing more than stroke the ego's of site owners.
Some of the Sitejabber reviews of Alexa appear to have been made by Alexa employees, on viewing the content.

The owner seems to have lost his grip on reality, he continues to perpetuate his myths, against all proof, logic and common sense.
The site has some good info, but it is so hard to winnow out any that the effort needed is not worth it.
Please note that fifthavenue continues to make nasty, derisive comments in threads I have posted in, and I am using the only methods at my disposal to answer his silly and poorly thought out posts.
He lacks any credibility on the site now, as his increasingly ludicrous scribblings give us a little insight to his mentality.
Overall it is time to start again Stephen, this time try to get it right, no myths, no made up "facts", and no outright lies.
That means getting rid of fifthavenue as the main culprit, and you removing that ridiculous "First 5,000" badge, as 14 watches do not a theory make, nor does a span of less than 2,500 serial numbers make 5,000, it is simple maths.

EDIT:- I see the site owner has made accusations against me on Alexa, as has been brought to my attention by a myBulova member. He has got it wrong yet again, and is naming me as the sole person making a spate of bad reviews against his site.
If he would think about it, he has only himself to blame there, as he posted a bad review he found on Alexa about myBulova on his main home page, then went on a rant that he kept changing, until he must have realised it was hurting him by doing this.
Of course disgruntled members and visitors will give a bad review after seeing that, he is giving the link to a platform to air their views on his own website, a singularly stupid thing to do, as it is human nature to complain. I am now reducing my rating by one star, because of his rants about me there. I will also return the favour, giving a link to the reviews there:-

Update.
I see the site owner has "re-designed" his Lone Eagle story. What a joke.
Here is a little excerpt:
"In the Sayville (NY) Suffolk County News of May 2nd, 1930 a Mr H. H Taub of Bulova stated that "his company gave every aviator who attempted to hop the ocean a watch". It has been my belief since 2006 that this watch was a Bulova Conqueror."
His belief since 2006? Read this excerpt he wrote last year in his Lone Eagle forum.

"Finally., I am not aware of any stories (other than a very early theory I had, which I now believe to be incorrect) that tells of Lindbergh having a Bulova watch pre his historic flight.
The letter and famous saying was as a result of the watch being given to Lindbergh by Arde Bulova upon his return to the US on June 11 1927."

If you read the rest of this forum, you will see that proof positive has been given by me that Lindy WAS given a watch pre-flight, and it WAS a Conqueror.
The guy can't seem to get his story right, or make his mind up. It's like he is saying-" I don't believe in Santa Claus, but I believe in the Tooth Fairy".
Read his stories, and you will see he is just a "believer". I found ELEVEN "I believes" and "It is my beliefs" in the first half of his Lone Eagle article alone.
He ought to stick to facts, instead of making it up and twisting genuine statements to suit his "idea", not "theory". You need facts for a theory.
Remove the blinkers and rose-tinted specs, they must be uncomfortable by now.

Update
I see Mr. Ollman has "edited" his post on the advert for the new Lone Eagle. He removed his LONE EAGLE FAIL" remark after I claimed the finding of a new model.
Also see he is stealthily trying to remove any adverts, even the ones that have helped him find names for watches, that have the "Watchophilia" watermark.
We are all watching you Stephen.
Also, he has "adjusted" the watch boxes for his BULLova LE story, after I found he has got them all mixed up. I posted my findings on Watchophilia, and he changed dates and positions, nice to know he gives credit where it is due, as always.

NOT!

Nice enough watches, but the snide comments about Lisa from Watchophilia will not help his site.
I once thought Jay the site owner knew a bit about vintage Bulovas, but he never seems to say much, just follows the "herd", even when they are wrong.

Excellent site, well thought out with some of the best and rarest of Bulova watches I have seen. Friendly and helpful. Very good site for a new one and holds much promise for the future.
Good luck with it, Lisa.
