Here is a great pick up this week. It is a stainless steel case with a 14KT Gold bezel ring and an M3 date code. The movement is a 30 jewel 10BZAC which shows some corrosion due to a small hole in the case back. Someone really had caustic sweat. I need to find a better bracelet. Matches the 1963 Bulova 30 "QW" from the 1963 linebook. By the way I weighed the 14kt gold bezel ring and if you are curious it weighs 2.36g.
Nice match Jim. Depending on what you paid for it, you might come out on top in gold value alone.
Your right about the back case. The rotor looks like it's had a hard life as well.
1963 Bulova 30 "QW" seems a good ID.
Nice snag, Jim. Looks like it was "rode hard and put away wet", but I would wear it! Gotta love the original 30 line!
