When looking at engraved 20s/30s watches, I've noticed when the gold is rubbed through or chipped, the metal looks more white than expected. Almost like some type of plastic in appearance.
Does anyone know what metal was used under the gold?
Thanks!
I have a 1953 and 1954 watch with a BULOVA stamped crown ... but was looking at a 1951 without the stamp on the crown.
It got me curious if anyone knows what years had the stamped crown.
The 1951 may not be the original crown, but seems the correct size.
Thanks!
I was looking at a 1950's Bulova Mans watch with diamonds at the 12/3/9 spots, and wasnt sure if Bulova was known to use real diamonds in their released models.
Thanks for the info! ---
I have a men's Bulova L2 (1952) which appears to be close to an Ultimatic. The serial number is 5217675 which I can't find anywhere. Can anyone give me a hand with the serial number? Thanks.
I was cleaning my 1954 Squadron and the crystal fell out. I'm not really feeling glue on the edges, and it doesn't seem like it has a beveled edge to just press it back in.
Figured I'd ask before I end of cracking this thing. What's it going to take to get it reinstalled... glue... a press ... or just press it back in carefully?
Thanks
Recently Ive been searching for a late 20's / early 30's engraved Bulova to add to my collection.
Ive noticed that some will say 14k on the inside backs, and some will not.
Are they all gold fill, even without the stamp?
I am looking for the "Expansible Bracelet Clasp" for my 1943/44 Bulova Minute Man watch.
The clasp is/was used on a "basket weave" yellow gold mesh band. I have included 3 pictures for the clasp along with the patent for it.
Somehow the "pawl element" (#46) which includes the integral "finger operated member" (#56) and it's "curled" end (#48) managed to loosen and fall free. It's all one piece.
My fourth broke while cleaning in the ultrasonic😢 Anyone have a spare?
Hello, I'm a new member and have collected a few Bulova 7AP watches from the late 30's and need some parts. Sure there's the bay but through I would try here first. Looking for a couple glass crystals for the two 1938 President's I've acquired. The crystal is 27.1 x 14.5. Thanks for your help
