Watch Description

Here is another unicorn for my mid-century collection.  I saw it and had to have it.  Awesome mid-century brutalist hideaway flip watch with matching bracelet.  The watch is white gold, electroplated, and the has an N7 date code on the stainless steel back.  Flip up the hinged cover and there’s a beautiful minimalist dial. I could not find a serial number.  Has an Accutron crown. I could not find a date code on the movement nor was there an import mark.  Made in West Germany. I found a match in the BAWD linebook 213 as a 1977 Bulova Model #50811.
