Watch Description

1940s Bulova pink/copper dial watch in nice original condition Has a 17 jewel 8AE Bulova movement, case reads "Bulova 10K rolled gold bezel stainless steel back New York".  Case exhibits serial number 130930.  The reflections on the pictures do not do this piece justice since the dial appears much lighter than it really is.  It is mounted on a vintage (original?) FLEX-LET 10k gold-filled top, stainless back.  Measures 35mm lug to lug, 22mm wide without the crown.  Keeps good time,

Very nice.  I have always liked the combination of the blue hands with the copper dial.

Very nice looking watch Jim. I have the 48 model in yellow gold but I agree with Paleotime on the combo of blue hands and copper dial. I have a great fondness for copper  and rose gold colors.
