Watch Description

There wasn't a 1954 example of this Bulova model posted. This one is a pretty good example. I think it has the original band and dial. I'm not sure about the display case but it was in it when I received the watch. The mainspring was broke when I received it and it could be the previous owner retired it when it broke. It's got a new mainspring and runs good now.

Agreed,

1954 Bulova Ardsley on original band. Box may be a year or two newer than the watch, it's hard to say. Even so, it could have come from the jeweler in it.

Nice!
