Hi everyone
Just wondering if anyone out there had seen a watch like this before. I was glancing through ads but had not found it but think it is called bulova concentric. Dated L6 (1956) 10k gold filled automatic 6 adjustments. I had not seen one by bulova before just Benrus (Benrus pointer)
thanks
These two watches are not the watch pictured in the ad. Ad does not show the alternating coin edge around the bezel. The dials are the same but the cases are different. I have also seen this model as automatic. I'd be interested to know what the inside back cover states on these beauties. I think this is one of the coolest watches Bulova made....about that Benrus reference, did Bulova copy the competion on this guy?

I look forward to seeing this added to the myBulova watch database. Please add as much detail about the watch as you can including information about the movement.
Geoff,
The Bulova '23' is shown in this Case, ad in the database. Jerin had one at one time, I believe (?)
....ack, but now I see the Dial discrepency.
This Watch would NOT be the Bulova 23 - 'HIS EXCELLENCY' were the manual winding 23 Jewel sub Dialed models but I'm not positive about this Watch with the added Calendar complication showing.
My bad, good catch Geoff!
In reply to Geoff, The Bulova '23' is by FifthAvenueRes…
In reply to Fifth, what's the Dial by mybulova_admin
No wrist alarm, I too seen the slight differences noted. The only other reference is to a "Bulova Concentric" Oh yes this is an automatic winder and has a B cut out . I will add more pics today
Hopefully we can "Unwind" this mystery (Pun intended)
I love a great watch mystery
So here are a few pics of the watch. And here is a link to the exact watch on another site. The movement is a 10BPAD and looking at the rotor you can see the way the cutout forms a "B" and the adjustment markings are on the outter edge of the movement plate

And now the pics,tell me what you guys think
In reply to Date code is L6 (1956) But my by jcmurp
Oh yeah and I thank all of you. Saved as my favorite. I like helping when I can and getting help when I need it. I am still working on cataloging allot of my grandfather and great grandfather watch parts (NOS) they were just dumped in a big tote when I got them as they had moved just before they passed away. All still in packets and all brands and kinds allot are OEM a very hard task sometimes. But I do like the bulova watches...my current favorite is my grandfathers spaceview in 18k dated M2 (1962) He had it regulated for the new bat (he did not have the equipment to work on them)
