Watch Description

 I inherited this watch from my mother. She received this watch in 1960 for her high school graduation. It is marked "Bulova 1/10, 10k G.F." in several places. The face is white and the bracelet has a basketweave appearance. I am trying to restore the watch, and I have almost completed the task. After having some internal work done, I had the face cleaned and repainted and the bracelet portion polished back to its original brilliance. The only thing that is missing is the safety chain for the bracelet. 

If anyone could give me any information about the watch and where I might be able to get the appropriate safety chain for it, I would appreciate it!
