Watch Description

This was a $25.00 watch when new, but for $3.50 more you could get the beautifully engraved Trojan or Conqueror. The Spartan was possibly too plain looking for the roaring 20s, just prior to the market crash, hence the scarcity today.  The case is 27.5mm x 35.0mm Lug-Lug & 16mm between the lugs. Bracelet & watch appear to be all original. Unlike most of the late 20s Bulova mens watches, having a slightly curved back, the Spartan has a flat back & single hinge.
