Watch Description

Here is an unusual one we seldom see from the "mod" President line introduced in 1960 that quickly faded away. Gold Florentine dial, yellow gold plated case with lugs connected with a "hidden lug" spanner. Hand winding in house 23J movement.

1960 President "C".

Runs and keeps time as received.

Nice find Neetstuf. This one is only the 2nd one posted. Must not be a lot of these floating around.

The ad cannot be trusted.   Based on the 1960 Linebook this is a 1960 Bulova President "D" which I believe is a first for this year and variant.

Seems a strange combination of yellow gold case and what appear to be white color hands and indices. The other linked 1960 example also has this color combo.

Pres "D" for 1960

Becomes the "F" in 1962
