I recently bought a 1958 A17A, and I need to replace the crystal. Can someone tell me if the watch would have originally had a glass or an acrylic crystal? The crystal that is on it now is acrylic, but I had an older Waltham A17 and I was told that it would have had a glass crystal originally. I also need to replace the seals in the Bulova A17A, so I'm looking for those, in addition to a crystal.
Thanks,
TQ
Well this is pretty cool. Look at what I picked today for $5 from the bay. A 1956 45 record of Jackie Gleason singing a song for a Bulova Christmas promotion I think.
A place for members to post and share your priced vintage BULOVA time pieces.
This is a good video on repairing and servicing a Bulova "Wrist Alarm" model.
These are from a watchman who specialized in repairing Bulova Watches and are unopened packs of Balance Staffs and stems from various calibers for example

Hi, I am a new bee and really dont know my way around so please forgive if I mess up.
I have started collecting rectangular Bulova vintage watches. I only have one at present but there again so did everyone at first.
I am specifically looking for the 1952 president but all I can find are those on ebay that seem to have spent several years at the bottom of a pond.
I have looked at the adverts on here but cant find a section where I mught add details of watches wanted. Is there such a section please.
Is there a source of info on Bulova interchange between different movements? I am presently looking for a hairspring or complete balance assembly for an 11AF movement.
Hi All,
this is my fist message and i just got this Bulova snorkel 666, to my eye it looks in a good condition, soon i will post some inside picture, now my question is is it worth to restore it? and also if you can tell me how much could be worth? no box or paper, watch only.
thanks for the help
