That's a nice Tuxedo Jabs. It's the same age as me, but I didn't hold up as well. It won't take much to make this beauty shine again. I see that little "v" notch on the dial. If that's a refinished dial, it sure was done to perfection. I like it.

I just re-read my comment about the dial. That could be taken the wrong way. I meant the printing and everything looks to have been done without any errors. It has some age showing but that's not what I was referring to.

I'll try to dial first gently cleaned and then I'll see, watch needs a complete revision.

Hi jabs

Nice one you beat me to that one :-) 

It has the same hands as the one l put on the db a couple of weeks ago. I know the db ad shows different hands to yours and my tuxedo but l have seen a few with this type of hands. Is the add correct or did bulova produce some tuxedo's with these hands as well as with the ones shown in the add
