BULOVA 8AC from 1957...Anyone?

Submitted by empressissi on March 23, 2012 - 5:25pm

Hey guys
Any idea about this 1957 8AC model?
Similar characteristics to the 'Craftsman' and a pretty similar dial but the case is different;
Definitely not that model...

Thanks for any help! Tal

No IDeas from me- I don't recognize it- but it's a nice watch.

I scanned all the ads back and forth from 1950 to 1960 and could not find anything :-S

'CRAFTSMAN' variant would not be out of the question - Dial, Movement and Gold Caseback are the same.

What are the Bezel opening dimensions?

Hi Tal

If you could enter your pictures through the site "unknown" interface, it would be easier for us to view them and the thread at the same time.  This also places the images on site, so your record remains if your links to images stop working after a while.  This is a nice watch, and worthy of entry.  I hope folks can help ID it and preserve that info on site for future reference.  Please and thanks.
