Watch Description

Here is the first of this model variant for the DB.   It is a 1940 Bulova Newton with a black dial.   It looks like the dial does not fit but that is an illusion created by the crystal I used to fit in there.  I am certain the dial is true to the watch.   The case is yellow gold plate with stainless back.  The movement is a 10AX with a T date code dating the movement to 1942.  The case serial number begins with zero so thinking 1940 date for this one.

Well if we have a red dial variant why not a black dial one too, although I suspect the red dial version didn't come from the factory that way :-)

1940 Bulova Newton (variant to be determined).

1940 Bulova Newton looks like a match. Any sign of redial Jim?
