Here is the Calhoun model. Untouched and unrestored, just received. Working fine.
This has a rare 21 jewel 10ae movement. Most 10ae I have seen have been 15/17j I think.
I will update with better pictures in the future but just wanted to get this out there as there is not another on here.
In reply to Gary, GOOD ONE! I was by WatchCrystals.net
In reply to The 10AE came in 17J and 21J by FifthAvenueRes…
In reply to Fifth, Bulova also produced by mybulova_admin
Gary,
See also the "BEN HUR" I just recently ID'd:

I've seen one before, but can't seem to find it now and recall the 'CALHOUN' showed a non engraved bezel (?)
The only difference I see in the 2 actual Watches is the sub Seconds Dial, which looks overly small on Garys Watch in comparison to the size and era of the Dial possibly indicating a refinish at some point? - IMO based on the positioning of the 12 numeral part of the 6 numeral would show on the Dial if a sub Dial of this size were originally used, there's plenty of room for it..
Watch Dated 1938 - not much of an arguement against the originality of the Dial.
Ad Dated 1937 - 'BEN HUR'
