Watch Description

This one is a stunner. A 1971 10COAC 30 Jewel movement (also 1971) in a stainless steel monocoque case with a split stem that opens through the front. The dial is a deep red that fades to black at the edges with raised numerals. It was sold as NOS with the original black leather Bulvoa band and came in the Bulova box. I swapped out the band with this custom made one that matches the dial beautifully. The case shows it was made in W. Germany and is numbered 2591.

There is another copy in the database from 2022 that was ‘Unknown’ at the time.

That is super nice. Well done on matching that strap...that's perfect.

I've not been able to find anything close in our adverts or the linebooks we have.

Great watch!

Awesome looking watch in amazing condition.  Very unusual not to note 30J on the dial.  Clearly a factory model since we have another in the DB.  Unkown for me.

Guy - I love the strap you have on this watch, it's perfect! I too cannot find anything to match it. By the look of the dial back I suspect it was repainted to this color.

Beautiful watch and a great band match. I initially questioned the dial, but based on the other in the database, it's legit.

I also looked and wasn't able to find a match.  Gorgeous watch.
