In reply to case lugs are very different. by mybulova_admin

The watch definetly has attached lugs. The ad looks like molded lugs. The dial & hands match pretty well. Do you think this ad is an artist conception problem or that the ad & watch are a not a match?

Do you have a diameter handy for the Water Tite?

Wayne,
2 Waterproof Cases here both fancy lug variants. 30mm round.
I'd say We have an artist rendition / conception issue on the Case Lugs as all other aspects of the Watch match perfectly, even the description.
Check ot the upper and lower Left Lugs on the drawing closely, the Bezel line comes around continuously and forms a break.
'SEABEE' if the Watch is 17 Jewels or' 'WATER TITE' if a 15 Jewel model, as described in the ads for both.
Stephen, I think rather than naming these military style non-gummit issue unknows, we should have a Military Style category in the drop down list, especially when a name is not known. It would also keep these non-issue watches in their own category. Less confusion.
The lugs on this watch are the most obvious attached lugs I have ever seen. LOL

How about an opinion on the Brunswick string. I have two adament Gentlemen that will not accept Nova's new watch as a Brunswick, yet they can't come up with a proposed name of their own. If you have ever seen a real 1929 watch that looks like the Brunswick ad watch of that year, let me know. I don't believe the design exists.

There are more points of similarity to this Watch and the ad showing it as a Seabee than dissimilarity, the desecriptive text describes the Watch to the T.
The ad for the Water Tite shows a better rendition of the Hands and Case, but the Dial is an obvious variant.
Wayne,
There is text on the Crown of Your Watch, what does it say?
Mark, the 2 cases shown above are far too different, even factoring in the artist impression. I don't think its safe to assume its the sagfe watch just because the text reads the same. I'm sure trhe text could apply to other watches similar.
The watch is closer to the Water-Tite IMO.
Wayne, I believe there already exists a "Military' option in the model dropdown to cover all generic military watches that we have yet to correctly identify.
