Watch Description

A birthday gift from my brother, who has also been dragged down the Bulova "rabbit hole".... Watch is very clean with swivel lugs, a super nice face and the original band with moderate high point wear. Keeps excellent time. Alas, it has a cracked crystal that is probably original. Hopefully I will at some point find a replacement.

1937 Broadcaster.  -  This was one on my bucket list, so I'm a happy guy.

Here is a nice comparison to it's unknown 1938 swivel lug 17J little brother (possibly a Kenneth by crystal specs)

Great looking watch, with original band. These 30s 40s long case designs seem to be hot right now.
