Watch Description

1959 Bulova Beau Brummell.  I would like a determination on the variant. We have the white version in the database with a variant of "KK", there is usually a different variant for the different case material. Case has some wear on it, mostly on the back and high spots of the lugs on the back side. Dial is pristine and glows under the lights or a nice sunshine. Crown is not signed on my example.  It arrived with a JB Champion band that may be original although i prefer it on leather. Movement is also marked Bulova USA L9, 23j adj six positions. One of my favorite Bulova Movements.

Nice one! I have a weakness for diamond dials. Found it in the 1958-1959 Linebook.

Very good, thank you! i also have a weakness for the diamond dials. my collection has boiled down to almost entirely the 23j beau's with the diamond dials. i wish i could upload high resolution photos of this piece. The uploaded photos do not do it justice, at all.
