Back of the watch gives me L0.... won't know the movement until I get it to the house.
Anyone have a black seconds hand in this style... probably 7AK if it's a AA?
Looks an aweful lot like this one Scott sold recently for like 500... except natural gold color
Gold filled Case measures 38.5mm lug to lug x 21.4mm wide non inclusive of the Crown while using Calipers. Signed 4X Dated 2x.

I have pair(mens and ladies) of Bulova signature collection watches. Thay are a lot newer the the watches you talk here but thay were my parents so I am just curious about them. Gold band,mother of pearl face?, 92 R 54 on the bottom of face, on the back ,bulova T1 top of back.
I have no idea what year this watch was made. It is a small gold Bulova watch with what looks like an eagle where the 5 would be. The number on the back is E094557
Case diameter is 26mm.
WE might just be the largest trove of information out there on Bulova's baring some old guys in nursing homes with stuff in their storage.
Spoke with a very helpful older lady at Bulova Headquarters in NYC today on the telephone and she said that any and all records over 25-30 years old are GONE!! Apparently they moved to smaller offices back then and just got rid of all the old archives. Like... trashbin type got rid of... They have nothing over 30 years old stored anywhere.
Looks like there's another Military type watch to ad to the list...
Wow... talk about shattering an ID! Goodbye two tone Surgeon... hello BULOVA BLACKHAWK!!
From a 1941 Montgomery Ward catalog Ad.
And now I know I have a Bulova Blackhawk here at the house and one on the way!!
Here's a few nice pics of the Blackhawk:
Looking to replace bezel to a better likeness to original. Any suggestions/recommendations as to where I should search? Any help is appreciated.
