Watch Description

Well gents once again we've a mid-30's case stamped Bulova /w bell symbol on the case.  I've absolutely no doubt now, that these cases are the original mid-30's Bulova cases.  I've seen to many of them on to many legitimate models to think anything otherwise.  This watch again sports the 6AF that seemed to be popular in the long rectangular watches of these few years.  The bracelet came with the watch and matches perfectly so I believe it's the original as well.

Plains do you by chance have a spare mainspring for this beauty?  I have the same movement in another watch but can't seem to find a mainspring for it. PM me if you do.

Possible model. Advert jewel count suggest a either a 15 or 7 jewelled movement, more likely 7.

Possible Bulova Semtinel

1934 Bulova Sentinel

The case design looks close Admin but the Sentinel appears to have a seconds hand. Since the seconds hand is driven by the staff of the 4th wheel, the design of the 6AF movement wouldn't lend itself very well to a lower center placed seconds hand.
