Mark,
I just revised the 1940- 2 version of the "Physician." Did you by chance narrowly outbid me?!

In reply to Mark, I just revised the by WatchCrystals.net
I just picked up a Bulova Physicisns watch exactly the same as tryouts in the photos.iwas able to identify the model by comming back to this site and doing a little searching. I would like to replace the crown and was wondering if yours is original and came without the Bulova marking or replaced later time ? Also because this movement is not as common as other Bulova movements do you know which other movements would have a similar crown that would work on the 7 ac movement . Nice watch !! Best Regards, Rd
In reply to I just picked up a Bulova by esk51
imo the Crown is not original to the Watch. The 7AC is not listed in the 1953 parts interchange catalog but Crown #102 would be a good bet.
Nice snipe Mark!
I put in a last seconds bid and fell way short of the final amount. I think most of the marks are on the crystal and not the dial, it should clean up nice plus it is still running! Now to find a ad and name it.
Narrowly apparantly Sir.
: )
Thank You for the ID.
Greg,
I almost needed a Physician after the dust cleared.
lol
Me as well....but not so narrowly lol
Yep,
The Kitchen sink went at this one.
Early Date stamp and rare.
LOL,
I saw it with about 5 min. left, til auction end... Mike Holben could get $500.00 for it... so I suspect it's either a KEEPER, or at least a $295.US resale???
Figures... the only snipe I missed...
:-) Scott
Scott,
Keeper undoubtably, but will consider Your $295 offer?
: )

Sir Mark,
I'm not that wealthy just yet... Maybe by 2012???
And on a side note (?) did you also score the Gladiator on auction, 1- 2 days ago? (A remarkably similar case, me thinkst?) SEE: http://www.mybulova.com/watches/1933-Gladiator-279
Hmmm... better denote the correct movements, eh? And I presume the Physician case is a (more moderne) snap back detachable ensemble?? (Or watch out for REdials, on eBay!?!)
