Watch Description

Here is an awesome long and large Bulova Prentice I got out of that lot of 30 Bulova's I recently bought.   It is 40.3MM long and is two toned with a hinged case with the engraving yellow gold with the rest of the case white gold filled.  The movement is a 9AF 17J with dual Omega/Square Shield date code.  White dial with yellow gold applied hour markers.   Longer than a Betram this watches matches the 1931 ad for the Prentice.   I am real happy to have this one.  Keeping my fingers crossed I can get this running.

A first for the database if I'm not mistaken.

Nice to see an advert that actually matches the description of a watch to the tee.
