Great looking watch! I like it a lot. I find it very difficult to photograph black dialed watches without the glare. I guess the only way is to remove the crystal.

It never ceases to amaze me how some dials just look so clean and fresh, just like they rolled off the production line last week!!

Bulova Midnight Clipper it certainly is.
