Nice one, at first, I was sure it was this one: but case shape isn't correct. Still looking

I find no watches with this face and movement in this case and I have just realized that the case back has no serial number and isn't marked Bulova inside or out. I suspect this is the movement and face from a Clipper "AC" installed in a non-Bulova case.

At this point, my opinion is this watch is Non-conforming

Obrigado pelo comentário. Também achei estranho a "case" não estar assinada e não ter número de série. Encontrei este relógio assim como está, numa feira de velharias. Gostei.

I'll have to agree with the case not being an authentic Bulova. I think even models from Europe would have correct markings and date stamp. Dial and movement look proper.

Também concordo que a "case" não é BULOVA. Sendo assim, será um "Não conforme" até encontar uma "case" original Clipper "AC" 1970.

José - Concordo que o relógio deva ser classificado como Não Conforme devido à caixa não padronizada.

Jose - I agree that the watch should be classified as Non-Conforming because the no-standard case.
