New watch storage case!
Hello everyone! I thought I would share a picture of my watch collection in my new storage case! I am very happy that they are all on display together instead of in a drawer!
So... What's your favorite 1920's style of Ladies Bulova?
So... Pick a handful.... What's your favorite style from the 1920's? 😊
#1, #2, #3, or #4?
#1 The oblong ladies either enamel or jeweled, usually 14K?
#2 The parisien knockoffs? Almost exact copies of the Elgin series of the timeframe?
#3 The "Sports Watches" Lido type series? Not pictured are a couple others I have in the Miss America and the Lady Lindy...
#4 The other Miss America Miss Liberty types... Now some of these will also extend into the early 1930's...
What say you?
Oceanographer G dial variations
Hiya;
I'm working on determining how many variations of the G dial were produced. I've currently found 6, (excluding the V variant) and was wondering if there was anything on these forums about it? I'm looking for year made for some variants. Any information is helpful. Thanks.

Bulova Series 1430 Yeoman Accutron Transistor Radio
Here is a first for me. Bulova clear back "Yeoman" (series 1430) pocket sized transistor radio with lined leather case.. In the original packaging with papers and Bulova 9V battery. Note that the box is marked "Ebony, C" - black body with clear back. The paperwork is undated, but bears a zone number address, indicating it is pre-1963. The Accutron was introduced in I believe Nov. of 1960. The 1430 series radio is the only example of a Bulova radio I find online bearing the tuning fork logo. This would appear to date this radio to the same time frame as the original Accutron.
The Bulova Accuquartz Cal. 224 was the first mass-market quartz wristwatch
This is a great article about the history of the quartz watch and Bulova's role as the first to mass produce a quartz watch. The article claims the The Bulova Accuquartz Cal. 224 was the first mass-market quartz wristwatch
