Watch Description

This is a 1951 Rona but without an original band, the "A" and "D" variations are the only possibilities. The movement is the 6BO with an L2 date code. The current data on the 6BO list the start year as 1953. This is also a 7j movement which is not currently in the data for this movement.

This give me 3 adds to the DB.

1) First '51 Rona
2) Moves 6BO up to 1952
3) Adds 7j to the 6BO variations

A very nice Rona.  I updated the movement info.  Without the original band that indicates the variant, it will be a Rona without variant for me.

1951 Bulova Rona looks to be a good match.
