Hi Everyone,

 

I do not know much about the watches but I do know some about the crystals since that is what I sell. I was looking thru my WC catalog and I found the

ladies crystal 10.4mm fits these bulova watches

Black Beauty

Carla (6776)

Coral

Eva

Lady Berkshire

Lady Maxim

Nocturne

and the Mens 21.2mm

Air King

Berkshire

Midnight Star

so that leads me to believe that the man's watch is an Air King & a Berkshire and the ladies is a

Lady Berkshire.

Hope this helps

 

Maria

Maria,

It certainly does.

The Gents Watch is beleived to be the 'BERKSHIRE', the 'AIR KING' has a Black Dial.

What Year is the Catalogue?

To be honest  I am not sure.  I purchased them on a Ebay a few years ago. They are all hand typed loose sheets not like the other WC catalogs I have. It was a lucky find! There is more info in these loose sheets than in my other catalogs put together.

miss these old discussions, they were extremely productive:

ad dated 1951 shows the 'LADY BERKSHIRE' and the 'CARLA' as being the same case, confirmed by the crystal data listed by Maria 

*(6776 possibly being the case #)
