Hello Mebco, welcome to myBulova. It seems like you got the advert right on this beauty, well done.

Here's the full page version.

It's curious that there's a solid gold bracelet on a watch that's plated. In terms of appraisal we are unable to provide it, we really aren't qualified.

Thank you for taking time to help!  The solid gold bracelet made me wonder also when I bought the watch at a garage sale but I was not about to ask questions and call attention to it.  Thanks again.
