Made this 'handy' reference from an image originally produced by Bulova for a parts drawer showing the different hand styles and terminology used to describe them. Some technical data is also included on the various seconds hands. Looks to cover mid 30's - 50's. Enjoy.
Good one, Mark!
Does anyone have a reference illustration and/or chart to post, listing the correct hands to movement combos??? (For instance... I have a 1937 manufacture Rite Angle with the "8AM" movement, that needs all three gold hands replaced, due to oxidation...)

I forgot that I did obtain an original 1952 BULOVA Catalog of Interchangeable Parts, which I don't see posted here, off hand??? ABOVE are some quick pics, of the relevant hands tables:
I "uploaded" (2) of the dirty (unedited, aside crop resized and cropped) dozen photos...

In reply to Yup. Thar 'tis. Thanks by FifthAvenueRes…
No prob Mark. I found those old charts attached to a hands set (one of the old boxed ones were the hands are all in little bottles in numbered slots) I bought on ebay back in March.... it's really good info...
I just PM'ed Admin to see if he could post it up permanently on the Info-> Vintage Bulova Catalogs page so we can all have it around.

I initially attempted to post all (12) pages of this stuff... (Finally figured out HOW to use the upload ensemble again, a few mins. ago... and Mark added most of the 1st 2 pages... so I just added two more, and it goes to page 112!)
The aforemented 1952 Bullova catalog, shows most (if not ALL?) pre 53ish hands, second hands and sweeps, I think? But an Excel, etc. cross- ref, chart could be made (maybe even in combo with the movements, etc.?) as a single master chart... Then the resulting "Bully Parts" related traffic draw would be quite fierce, me thinkst?!
