Watch Description

This identification will be easy, but I have not seen this specific Longchamp on the site so thought I would list it.  Yellow gold plated case bezel that is not quite square but has rounded corners and very slightly curved sides. Sized at about 30.5mm x 30.5mm without the lugs and crown.  Case back is stainless with a serial number and date code on the outside.  The inside back has gold plating info, another number of some type, and "swiss" stamped into it.  I was very drawn to this one by a couple of things.  Firstly the color variations on the dial and the way it slowly transitions from a pale yellow look in the center to a medium-dark brown ot the edges.  Second, the white hands and white roman numerals really stand out against that dial.  Third, it is very thin, light, and comfortable on the wrist.  Feels almost as if you are not even wearing a watch.  The last picture is the original band in very poor shape.  I may eventually find a similar band and transfer the buckle over but had this one handy back when I bought the watch and liked the look.

Thanks for looking!  I'm really enjoying the mybulova site!

Nice modern design watch.   1974 Bulova Longchamp is a good match.

I've had no luck finding any more information on these Bulova Longchamps.

Quick hide this from Bulova before they decide to do a re-issue. Such a classic design.
