Watch Description

I'm guessing Aviator on this but it seems to lack the engraving on the bezel that many of them seem to have. Movement is a 1948 15J 10BC consistent with the Aviators in the database and the ad.  It runs and keeps time. Case is marked Bulova New York.  Its 15K rolled rose gold plate with a stainless back.

LOL.  I probably should have cleaned him up a bit more before posting.  The crystal needs to be replaced, too.  Really, all in all other than that its not in that bad of a shape.  It runs pretty well and it was pretty cheap.
