Looking for cannon pinion and set of hands for an A11. Appreciate any help if you have the parts or know where I may find them.
This is what You are looking for, would I sell them? Never...
the correct hands are the most difficult to find, it is best to source a parts movement with the hands. Bulova Military Surplus / Military issue N.O.S, parts.
Holy cow! They are absolutely more valuable than gold. Finding a donor movement that has a usable set of hands is much easier said than done. I have replaced the balance complete through a donor movement of another caliber, but all the A11's out there seem to have been rebuilt already, or have hands that were like mine...totally shot. I'm even considering having a set resin printed while I search. If you ever decide to part with one set, I would certainly be standing in line with money in hand!! :)
Don't know if it would make a difference in getting you to part with one set of hour and minute hands, but the watch I'm repairing is not for a flip. I'm retired military and am keeping it to honor it, and whomever its original owner was. Just thought I would add that in case it makes a difference. The search goes on.....

Just wanted to touch base, I haven’t seen a listing so hopefully you are enjoying the holidays. I just wanted to let you know before you listed them that I just bought a donor movement and from what I can tell has a full set of usable hands🤞. I appreciate you considering listing a set and if these aren’t usable for some reason I’ll come begging again🤣
Hi jikking. You might try asking Dave at Dave's Watch Parts and Tools. His email address is on his site. He doesn't have any listed but he doesn't have all his inventory listed. He says to email him if you don't see it listed.

Thanks, I did that this morning and he said all of his Bulova parts are listed on the site. He doesn't show any A11 hands at the moment. I definitely appreciate the suggestion though and am all ears for any other places I can go to hunt these things down. Thanks again.
I have some sets of hands that came in a Bulova factory repair kit for the 10AK CSH A11. There are two different pinion hole sizes so not sure what the difference would be.
I also have many parts and movements from the 20's and early 30's that I would love to sell without having to put on ebay. Way too many to list but many of the tougher to find movements.

If I'm not mistaken one size will be for the 10AK as found on this watch Bulova 1942 Military Issue | myBulova.com

Yes the majority of them are the original white hands for the military ak csh but there were just a few pairs that had slightly smaller hole sizes so I think there might be another version for those particular ones. I had a large wooden box directly from Bulova that had about 50 of each possible replacement part for this watch. It was called the "Bulova Repair Kit Military 10AK CSH" I actually sold it years ago to a mybulova member. THere were so many of the hands that I still have some.

Ah,I see. I have a 1950 Director that is next in line to service and get going. I'll have to do a little research on the 20's and 30's to see if there is something that catches my eye. Anyhow, I would certainly like to purchase a set of the hands from you. How do I go about paying you?
