I have looked all over this site and elsewhere, but I can't seem to find an exact match for this watch. I originally thought it was a diamond excellency, however the dial is textured, has 3 diamonds instead of 2, has an applied bulova logo, and has 23 jewels printed on the face. the diamond excellency has none of those. It could be non conforming, or it could be a whole different model. Maybe the line book could shed some light, or I possibly missed something in an ad when I was searching.
Man, I draw a blank on this one. Looks like it should be a Diamond Excellency, but it's 23 jewels instead of 17 and has an extra diamond at the 12.
Sorry, for me for now it's
1964 Unknown
Same here, unable to find a match. Some Beau Brummel models at this time had diamonds and 23 jewels.
-Unknown model
I feel like I've seen this watch a dozen times but apparently I haven't, I can't find a match either. 1960 Bulova Unknown
Found both of these in the 1966/67 LIne books.
10K Rolled Gold Plate version - Diamond Excellency (yep 17J movement)
10K Gold Filled version - Beau Brummell (yep 17J movement again)
Noting found matching the 23J version.
Based on the '10K Gold Filled' case I'm at Beau Brummell (no variant)
Beau Brummell's were available with 17, 21, 23 and 30 jewelled movements
I guess I would be a bit tentative on the Beau but it beats Unknown...
Agreed, Geoff. I'll go tentative Beau Brummell based on the similarities to the line book entries.We can always update if a conflicting ad is found.
1964 BB (no variant) with the possibility of a movement swap.
