I've had the good fortune to have two of these magnificent watches. The first one was NOS (still is I think) but this one looks like it might have had some wrist time or perhaps it lived on display as it shows a few nicks and scratches around the crystal. Original bracelet with expansion link and a presentation case makes this a wonderful addition to the collection. The serial number of the two I've owned are only 292 units apart, I sure would like to know how many were made. This could well be my all time favorite Bulova watch!

1972 Bulova Chronograph "F"
Amazing watch.
1972 Bulova Chronograph "F"
Afterw reading the description of the reference art I’m confused about what we call “E” and “F” in the photo and description for the “F” it reads silver tach, which the “F” in reference art reads silver but in the photo is black or a dark finish. Also it reads white markers painted on a black panel. Which this watch has the beige panel where the reference art shows black. So somewhere something is not matching. I love the watch.
Here's images on the "E" and "F" for comparison.

Yes I have the images , so my question is which dial has the beige track with white painted markers? The “E” according to the description attached to images , the yet the watch submitted has the beige track with white painted markers but named “F” , also the tachometer description has color discrepancies .
