I recently found my great grandfather's  1940s Bulova squadron with the original box, etc. I have all THAT, but I have no idea how old it is precisely. I've narrowed it down (using what Ive seen from other identical watch examples on this site) to 1945-1947, but I'm not 100% sure. There's oddly no date code anywhere on the movement, and the case serial number search (5095697) revealed nothing on this site. Am I doing something wrong? How do I date it on this site with just the case number and no date code???

Does anyone know if the 10CNCH is the only true 24 hour movement Bulova made?

Also is it possible someone knows what Bulova called the watch.?

Thanks

I recent;y purchased a stunning 1938 minuteman and the second hand is missing. The movement is a 7AP, and I've been searching high and low, and haven't found a 7AP second hand. I remember reading that the parts were often interchangable, so would using a 7AK second sweep hand (the closest one i could find: the model before the 7AP) work on a 7AP movement?

Where can I purchase a gasket for the case back? Or can someone tell me if the gasket is a flat or round like an o'ring and the dimensions? Thank you very much for your help!

Does anyone have a battery strap & screw for an Accutron 2193.10 that they want to unload on me?

I am in need of a case wrench for Bulova military, I believe it is #9082, or any suggestions on a tool to get the case open?

Thanks

My grandfather's 1940 Standish (in the database) has moderate wear-through in the plating on the back side of the case.

This watch is far and away a more sentimental item than anything else - I have no intention of selling it anywhere, at any price.  So my question is whether re-plating the case will prevent any further deterioration or is it best just to let it be?

Thoughts are most welcome!

I just got a 1941 Bulova Doctor/Surgeon watch where one of the lugs is partially broken off.  Someone in the past had drilled out the holes in both lugs on one end of the case causing the end of one lug to break off.  The holes are now too big for a spring bar to stay in place.  The case is yellow gold filled and 25mm square.  The movement is a 10AX.  I'd like to find a case, preferably with a good crystal.

Thanks,

Hi to all.

This is my first post in this forum and I'm sure that it'll have a complicate answer. I'm only an amateur watchmaker and after some time I decided to buy some old bulova watches. Recently I purchased two Sky King' cases wit dial. I have seen in the archives two types of dials for this watch but one of this cases, has a possible third dial? Although the marking aren't for this case, the dial has the same form and measures.

Could somebody tell me if is possible this dial for this model or which bulova watch use this one?
