Watch Description

1953 New Old Stock Bulova Director. Movement is date stamped 1952, case 1953. I did a double take when I went to log the serial number. Is it 6600999 or 6660099? I had to research the orientation of the s/n to make sure I wasn't reading it upside down.This one came to me without a clam shell but it shows no shop or bench wear whatsoever. Original diamond pattern band is present. A fine little Bulova.

I know I said the New Old Stock store wouldn't be open until later this year but I was notified that there were two sellers liquidating NOS collections so I hopped into the "way back machine" and picked up NINE 1940's and 1950's NOS Bulovas, this is first to be added....8 more to come.

Enjoy!

Very nice Director 'A'. These must have been popular watches; I see a lot of them up for sale and I've restored several myself.
