Yes, It's my dad's watch...yes, I know I shouldn't sell my dad's watch. But times are tough and Money is tight, so it's going. I love this watch but I never really wear gold and we have no kids to pass it on to, so I'd rather someone else enjoy it, than it sit in a drawer or on a winder forever.
This would be a great finishing touch for your vintage look. 32mm diameter, simple off-white (cream colored) dial with gold applied and painted markers. Nice patina. Selfwinding, in-house (Bulova design) Swiss made movement. Assembled in New York and purchased new by my father shortly after he arrived in NYC from Europe in 1957.
The watch originally had a Speidel expanding band, 10k Gold filled, which I am including. I prefer it on a leather strap, and it is currently on a brown alligator pattern calfskin strap. I am also including three brand new unused straps - two black, one brown.
The watch has always worked fine - I had it serviced (basic Clean/lube/adjust) about 10 years ago and it has always kept flawless time for me. It has been worn infrequently but spends some time on a winder each month to keep the movement going.
Asking $100.00 or will consider trades for Stainless steel watches, particularly a Seiko diver, which I always wanted as a kid - something my dad never understood LOL!
