Ask general questions about Bulova watches. Please do not ask for model identification. Add your watch to the website for that.
I am hoping one of you great scholars could date a 10AN movement for me. I have this conqueror that I don't want in the database until it is fixed up. (the same goes for my 29 also)
The movement serial # is 271375
the serial Number inside the case is 3416450
The outside of the case has no numbers on it
It doesn't run and only has 1 hand but a nice old bracelet.
Earlier this year I brought in my 1963 Accutron 401 with the 214 movement to be adjusted as it was running fast. I got it back and it ran great until a couple weeks ago.
I'm not extremely knowledgable about the watch or vintage watches in general. I had to sell my Dad's 1967 Speedmaster for estate purposes, so have been intrigued ever since. I picked up the attached watch at a local auction. It was more or less a last minute purchase. Wanted to get everyones thoughts on authenticity. It does have a scuff on the crystal and dial(which I didn't notice at the auction...rookie mistake).
Cheers
Anyone have opinions on replating cases?
I am considering setting up a small plating station to replate mostly yellow cases.
I picked up a 1967 M7 Bulova Accutron at a Garage Sale this weekend. I took it home and found that it had a quartz movement. It looks like it has a gold cover to it. Anyone seen this movement and know what model it is? I assume it is a replacement but I could not find this movement info. BTW...I am getting a pulse with a 392 battery but the watch does not advance. I am ordering a 384 to see if it makes a difference.
Could someone tell me what model this crystal fits. It has been laying around here for a while.
If anyone has this watch for sale, please contact me. Thank you!
Hi,
I have an M9 Bulova 666 Snorkel Oceanographer, which I bought without bezel. I was lucky to find a NOS bezel, but am missing the part which made it click.
It makes me wonder if the bezel was bi/uni-directional and wether it used a spring or a click-ball ?
A part id or photo would be wonderful if possible.
My humble thanks for any input.
kind regards,
Nikolaj
I am trying to identify this bezel but do not have the case back or movement.
The case is 2 part design and the bezel presses over the crystal.
The best match I have found is the 1962 Midshipman, but there are no examples on the site.
Can anyone tell me the year or years the President would have come with this display case?
