Watch Description

This is a 1948 Bulova "Director" in 14k white gold, I think. It has a 7AK 21 jewel movement with a "48" date code. It would probably look better if I cleaned it up, polished it a little and put a new crystal on it but I haven't had time to do that yet.

The movement photo did not come up for me but it looks to be a good match to the 1948 Bulova Director.
