Watch Description

This is an incredible military watch.  It is a 1944 Military Issue Ordnance Department with a 10AK movement.  It has a circle date code for 1944 and has a dust shield.  THe screw back is marked ORD. DEPT. U.S.A. OF-92577 BULOVA WATCH CO.  The dial is a dark brown with applied luminous hour markers and a printed white minute track and sub second register.   The crystal is extra thick and tall.  Currently it is not working and needs a new balance pivot.  The best part of the watch is the wonderful trench art engraved cuff bracelet.  It appears to be stainless steel and on one side has engraved mountains and palm trees and "Marianas Islands".  The other side has two volcanos and palm trees with "Tinian" and the date "45".   I am really excited about getting this restored and running again.

1944 (circle date code) Bulova Military issue.

I personally wouldn't do anything more than a service to this one.
