Watch Description

Jet Star 'H', case 3333. This one was a non-runner but cleaned up nicely. I love those oh so '70's brown and orange earth tones. I put it on a rally strap that compliments those dial colors.

This is great advice, GuyMontag ... I've been having the exact same issue with seating the crystal, and was ready to just give up.  I will try this approach and let you know.  Thanks again!

Bulova could have made that ad video a little better if the guy had been driving an Oldsmobile "Jetstar 88" instead of a Mecury "Cougar". 

The Olds Jetfires were made in 1964 and 1965.

I wonder why the dropped the day on the new Jet Star line? The older I get the more I have to check what day it is. Hopefully I don't get to a point where I'm looking at my watch to see what year it is...

The questions retirees ask EVERYDAY. What day is it? How did we have time to do all these things while we were working?
