Watch Description

This watch doesn’t need a lot of explanation. It’s a 1957 Commodore. The movement is an 11ACC with an L7 date code. The case back is also marked L7. The ad is from 1955. I used that ad because it better shows the bracelet which is original. The seller gave permission for me to use their pictures since there’s no way I can take pictures this good.

Agree with Commodore; no variant until 1959.

These load from the top; bezel and crystal come off and there is a split stem.

1957 Bulova Commodore is a good match.   Nice to have the original bracelet too.
