Searching for a Bulova 666 Chronograph Bezel

Submitted by Blubarb on March 2, 2024 - 8:21am

Hi all

I am looking for a  bezel to fit this Bulova 666 chrono - love the watch but no so much the worn bezel. Please let me know if you can help or even advise on a similar bezel that would fit and look okay - I am not pedantic.

You need to upload the image to this site, not 'paste' it into the comment field. Images will not show this way.

Please email the image to [email protected] and I will add it for you to this post.

John are you able to confirm the case model number stamped on the inside case back. Is it 875?

Ah I should have gone with my gut. It was either going to be 825, 875 or 895.

I'll take a look this evening through the ABC case catalog for the part number for the bezel ring.

Case 825 takes bezel B158. Case 825-1 takes bezel B164. I'm not sure what the difference is between the two.

Many thanks for your assistance, Stephen. I can already sense finding a bezel to fit is going to be a task even with knowing the bezel type now. The search begins :-))

Question regarding vintage bezels for ref. 825 Deep Sea Two Register Chronos (1969-71), were these fabricated by Bulova from aluminium or stainless steel?
