Jim - someone near you may love to have this display.  I've been toying with the idea of requesting some "space" in the NAWCC exhibit hall in PA, and putting together a little Bulova display.  A few nice vintage ads, some vintage Bulova watches and info.  NAWCC does have space, and takes requests for exhibits from members (and possibly nonmembers if sponsored by a member).   A nice Bulova display case would be perfect for this idea- if it's not too far from PA.  While I'd have to supply some watches and ads to NAWCC exhibit staff, I trust them completly, and the folks who help are museum trained, w/ a reliable currator who oversee's these types of exhibits.  Everything would be safe and sound while on display at their museum....the hard part is getting to PA NAWCC museum for me....but it's just an idea now anyway....

I am just a bout 8 hour drive from Pa. Waiting for the lady to call me back. We had a Antique resale shop here and the lady had a booth in there tons of stuff. The owner of the building wants it back, So the people who run the place are giving the vendors till the end of the month to remove their things. Hopefully all works out and i get this case its awesome and its a steal @ 50 bucks. shhhh dont tell no one lol.

Yea Jim unless you want this fairly large Bulova display case, I'd go for the watches too.  I think it would be great in a garage....and with time, you could sell...but that's with time.....  Too bad we can't see some pictures though...sounds so cool.

So it didn't look like this display did it?  If it did, would they take $35?
