Is this something new? This has never happened to me before. There were no links, no attachments and no objectionable language.

Found that Goodwill has an auction site and there are some Bulovas on there been watching this site for a few weeks. Might want to check it out. This is the link . There is a search tab just click that and type in Bulova and you can see all the Bulovas listed for auction.http://www.shopgoodwill.com/ Happy Hunting :)
I finally got out the light tent and am starting to shoot pics of the current amassed collection.
I picked up the watch shown at a local antique shop this February for $10, and the clerk wanted to be sure that I realized it didn't run!!!
Told him for that price I would take my chances.
This has an asteric for the date code and a 7AH 17 jewel movement, rolled gold plate case with a stainless back.
The case measures 20.6mm wide by 29.22 long not including the lugs. The case is rectangular without any curve from top to bottom.
I just got this off the bay looks interesting. The movement is marked 10AA witch i find rather odd and look like a Lone Eagle III, also from the seller pics look like the case is 2 tone.
Strange Ebay acquisition. I had never heard of Elco 'til this came up, did a bit of research and find they made quality watches and movements. When it comes I will Investigate further, until then can anyone offer any help?
Hello i'm looking for a hands set that look like the ones in the picture. What's the official name for these hands? I looked at a bulova hands chart and came up with nothing. on ebay someone called them luminous spear hands. is that the correct terminology?
I have been let go from my place of now (un)employment :P. Im selling my Watch collection. I am providing a link to my shop. Please feel free to make offers. Hope you find something you like :D
Hi: Hope someone in this forum can help me identify a model name and manufacture date for a ladies Bulova that my Dad had given to my Mom early in their marraige.I've attached a pic of its front and back. I had it serviced locally. Is keeping perfect time. I have been checking its time for the last ten days. At that time I rewind the watch and then set it aside for the next days check. Yesterday I had a jeweler open the back to see if we could locate any of the symbols used by Bulova between 1924 and 1948 to designate movement date. He located a "T" symbol near the stem set screw. Also 5AB" was found imprinted on a small rectangle.
The watch face has 3 diamonds on top and three diamonds below .
The back of the watch, at the upper top says BULOVA, below that it says 14 K. One the very bottom is a the serial number : 215152
It is marked on the movement 17 jewels. He aslo found near the fast/slow adjustment a square symol with a slash through it , an X , and a W. He said it represented 0XW.
Since the Bulova symbol list for 1924 - 1948 use a "T" to represent both years 1932 and 1942, he was inclined to think the model year was 1932 because of the appearance of the watches face. I'm stll note certain what year this watch was manufactured and what its name is? Any help identifying this watch is greatly appreciated.
When I look at it, it's 1960 again and I'm 5 years old and Mom is dressed to the nines and wearing her Bulova. Funny how a simple watch can make one miss someone so very much.
Thanks again everyone:
