Thanks very much to both of you! 

Is the info and the picture from a jeweler's catalog or a commercial advertisement? I'm just curious if that was the price to buy this in 1957.

Thanks again.

Entry is from the Bulova Linebook, which was an internal Bulova document. It shows the dealer cost and suggested retail of watches available to retailers in a given year.
