Hello,

I am looking for a minute hand or set of hands for a N1 Spaceview 2141. I have found some in Australia, but it could take a month to get and I'm not positive they are the correct hands. Mine are white with radium accents and the second hand is orange and triangular shaped.

Thank you,

Scott

Hi folks,

I am still desperately seeking the overlay piece for my '39 Doug Corrigan case. If anyone can help me, it doesn't have to be a freebie. I know how scarce they are. Also need a line on crystals, need lots of different ones. Anyone???

How careful about water exposure should I be with a vintage 1960 Goddess of Time?

*If I am posting this in the wrong I have a Goddess of Time “W” model watch from 1960 that I’ve been wearing nearly every day for the past couple of months, but recently I’ve been very worried about damaging it with water. I’m pretty sure that this particular model was not marketed as “waterproof” and as it was my grandmother’s I am especially careful with it. I even take the watch off every time I need to wash my hands... However I wanted to ask about this. How easy would it be to damage the watch through water exposure?

Is it Really a Bulova?

I have an 8AE with no stamp that I can  find or serial number. The case is not Bulova either but is "Master".

The dial is branded "Bulova Movement" and the case is something I've never seen before.

Did Bulova make this or is it a knockoff?

what is the weight of the gold in 14K Accutrons

hello,

New member to the forum.

I have a Bulova Accutron 14K M9 watch and know that my watch weighs 37grams(only the watch, no band or strap)

I have seen several different opinions on the web on how much actual weight of this 37 gram is 14K Gold.

Short of actually taking the watch apart and finding out myself I thought I would ask this question and see if somebody has more accurate info on the gold content.

If this question has been asked in the past, please accept my sincerest apologies and kindly point me to this info.

Thanks,

Mario

Looking for a date hand for a 1956 Bulova 23 Calendar, 10BPAD

I was incredibly lucky enough to pick up this 1956 23 Calendar yesterday, this watch has been on my bucket list for ages. Unfortunately, the date hand wasn't present. It's not under the crystal or lost in the movement, it's just not there. I removed the movement from the case to learn the dial posts are also missing so the only thing holding the dial in position are the winding stem and the hands. Right now, it's keeping time very well... but I was wondering if anyone might have a date hand for this watch? I'd imagine they're not easy to come by these days.

Bulova's Lume History

Hello everyone!  This is my first post on this site, and I look forward to discussing and hopefully being able to contribute to the discussions about this wonderful watch brand!  So the question I have is in regards to Bulova's lume material history, more specifically radium.  In doing some research, a lot of material I read is not overly specific as to when radium was discontinued.  Does anyone know of a specific year of production that Bulova may have stopped using it?  As I have small children in my home, I have made an effort to avoid bringing radium lumed watches into my home, not want
