2. J3055, JA3055, TA3055 (Bulova Snorkel model) / 1440AWD 31.1mm (snorkel armored white calendial)

3. no case style # found / crystal Q144 (armored yellow)

 

Appreciate the assistance and expertise. 

Anyone have a need for these crystals, lets talk.  You may have a part I need, or perhaps I'll just gift these to you. 

Bulova Chrono dial question

Hello all;

I've just received a 1940's Chronograph 

http://www.mybulova.com/watches/1941-chronograph-7833

I have some questions about the dial though. What are the re-dial options for a dial like this? I know that it effects the value, but I'd rather have a cleaner looking dial than what I currently have. It is oxidized, or is that something else at work? I plan on sending it in for service, it needs some finessing of the chrono mechanism. I wonder what a decent cleaning will do.

Hey everybody, I need a hand set for the Bulova A-11 with the sweep second movement. I need the second hand that has the little oval shape to the end(idk what it's called).

Please message if you have a set.

Thanks, Tyler
