Vintage Bulova Wooden Box - Does anyone know what this box was used for?

How to add images to myBulova.com forums & comments

Hi

We found this Bulova box while cleaning out my grandmothers house and I have been unable to find a picture of anything similiar on the internet.   Was wondering if anyone here might know what it was used for.   There was a watchmaker who lived at my grandmothers for a period of time - so we are thinking it may have been part of a store display for watchbands -  have tried multiple searches with no luck.  -  don't have the box here today to measure exactly but it is about 12" x 9" and 3" deep.

Ok looks like I can not figure out how to add my photos here  - having a bad day.

the box reads " Use Genuine Bulova Watch Materials" on the front in blue  and has a drawer that pulls out which is divided into three sections.

Your help is appreciated. 

Thanks

Looks like a parts box with bits and pieces now stored in it. I guess it's still housing watch parts :-)

I'd say it originally house the actual individual parts in the blue packets; staffs, crowns, main springs and such.

Lovely old box!
