Hi, folks -
Anyone have any idea about the model of this watch? I made a cursory look through the database, but, in all honesty, I'm not sure exactly how to go about searching for a similar model. I tried by date, but saw nothing similar. Any help will gratefully appreciated. Thanks.
I'm guessing about the movement symbol. Even at high magnification, I can't be 100% sure that it is an X. Also, I can find no serial number on the movement.
I have a 1931 woman's watch and need the crystal. The problem is it looks like the crystal was place from the inside and then was framed by another piece of metal to hold it. I cant slide a crystal into the grove. These pictures aren't great but you can see the grove. Any ideas would be great
You can see the grove in the first pic and the metal frame in the secound.
i was wondering if it is possible to retro fit old movments with a new silicon spring...would it be worth doing? do you vibrate them just like a metal spring?are they easier to form and manipualate? hard to deform? if so then it would be better then a metal spring..also they have a better time keeping abilty...
also what is acceptable beat error..also to fix beat error,lets say the watch is perfect other than being out of beat. would be put the watch in beat..is that correct because that is the way i understood,fixing beat error..
Bulova - M0 - 14 KT White Gold - Diamonds in place of numbers - Anti-Magnetic - Shock Resistant - Water Proof - Self-Winding
The watch has a hinged bezel and the inside of the back has Bulova Quality with a B below that and a number 3204891 stamped into it. Gold filled top and SS back on bracelet. I have searched through the ads from 1930 to 1946 and could find nothing on this watch or any mention of a hinged case bezel. The watch runs and keeps very good time and I have not cleaned it yet. The X throws me off since it could be a 1933 or a 1943. I think the case was one of the ones that First speaks of that was made outside of Bulova before they started making their own but not sure. Back of case back is gold also. No mention of 10k RGP or Gold Filled any where on the case.
I looked through the ads but could not find a definite picture. As usual, I need a little help. I saw a few with the name excellency on them but nothing that II would call a for sure ID.
