Watch Description

This one is a 1950 Bulova Photo-watch. It also has a Speidel photo band. You can put a photo of your wife or girl friend in one compartment and a photo of your dog or motorcycle or whatever in the other compartment. It looks to still have the original dial in pretty nice condition.

I think that woman's photo is factory because I have seen it in other photo watches. Here's a photo of the band compartment closed.
