This watch belonged to my Grandmother whom I lost several years back. Any information on this watch would be greatly appreciated. Note sure value but my grandmother than a wonderful sense of jewelry both real and fake. N7 case back.
Part of the Diadem family. Just looking for a linebook or advert match.
Welcome to myBulova and thank you for sharing your grandmother's watch with us. It is a beauty and the diamonds should be real and a very nice heirloom for you. I will take a look through the line books as well. Hopefully one of us will find it.
I searched and good not find a match. Probably a Diadem but no confirmation as of yet. I will keep looking.
Nice looking watch. I was unable to find a match to a model or number.

Thank you for the mention. I also find some similar diamond 17-jewel models around 1977 under the Diamond Imperial (linebook 209) and the Diadem and Diamond Seville series (Linebook 213). Sorry, still no match that I can find.
What a wonderful heirloom kd! I'm not too sure about the diamonds in the bracelet but I assure you the diamond on the watch are very real. Wear it proudly in honor of your grandmother. Please have it professionally serviced if you intend to wear it regularly/
1977 Bulova Unknown (FYI - we cannot give an appraisal but perhaps reputable jeweler can.)
Case, dial and hands are very similar to the 3rd watch from the left. Might just be part of the Diamond Imperial collection
Based on the 1977 Bulova line book this is a 1977 Bulova Diamond Imperial Model #55205W. Noting the subject has an add on diamond bracelet. This was a VERY expensive watch in its day.
