Watch Description

My fondness for custom Bulova dials continues.  Snagged this one at a rural auction in a lot.  The case is yellow gold electroplated case and an awesome custom printed silver dial with yellow and brown University of Virginia Cavaliers Big Five basketball logo. The movement is an 11ALC with an M8 date code as does the stainless steel back.   Found the match in the Bulova Athletic Awards ad.   1968 Bulova Sea King "B"

Well look what I found. Makes me wonder if this was the actual dial in this ad.
