Has anyone seen an advert for the Miss Liberty in the simulated Ruby stones?
Sounds familiar. I'll have to check.

All reference "simulated' gems, but only in relation to emeralds and sapphires. Could not find a reference to rubies.

Thank you, Stephen
I also could only find the emerald and sapphire ads. I could not find a Ruby one.
So, without an ad, is the Miss Liberty with simulated Rubies a real true Bulova? I wanted to know before I post mine, and there were none in the DB.

I'm pretty sure I've seen a ruby one aswell and would have put money down that we had one on site, but alas you atre correct.
I'm sure they exist....don't they?
Hopefully, someone else might be able to chime in with their opinion or knowledge.
Stephen, I have found a newspaper advert and one other however the description of watch and picture doesn't match.
Advert 1 (** SEMI- PRECIOUS STONES: RUBIES, SAPPHIRES OR EMERALDS**) 2ND PARAGRAPH
AD 2 DESCRIPTION STATES MISS LIBERTY WITH RUBIES OR SAPPHIRES, PHOTO/DRAWING IS INCORRECT.
Yes, they do exist, hard to find. I have only seen one for sale on ebay 5 years ago with damaged and missing red stones. And I recently pick one up for my collection. I have the sapphire and emerald Miss Liberty and now I have the complete set adding the Ruby one.
A little TLC and new band and she'll be good to go. It is working too.
