Watch Description

1938 Bulova American Clipper with original bracelet and roll top display box. This is one appears to have suffered very little use in its 76 years, even the display box shows little wear. This bracelet style, to the best of my knowledge, appears only on the American Clipper.

 I believe that the bracelet makes it the Clipper "F".

Drooool! That is beautiful Mr. Baker. That has to be one of the best looking bands ever made. They always end up being too short to fit me though. I believe you have your hands on an American Clipper "F".
