Hi everyone! Can anyone tell me the name or model of this watch? I
Recently came across a small chinese box with this watch in it. at the back it
has L7 at the top. At the bottom T273734.please let me know.
It doesn't work, but would I still be able to restore it? many thanks!

Bought this watch by mistake on ebay . I am putting it forward as Frankenbully of the year. Will Admin offer a prize ?  :-)

I'm not having any success finding a match for this one.  Eyes are tired from looking at ads.

Has same shape and lugs to the "Cadet" / D / C , but those pre-date 1953.  Clearly not the same.

Any thoughts appreciated.  Thanks!

Does anyone know what year was the first year Bulova started putting antimagnetic on the dial? I have a Bulova on its way that has this above the six on the dial and Bulova in its normal spot under the 12. Thing is i dont know what movement it has as i never got a shot of the inside movement.

Anybody have an idea on this watch? Looks like a "Cleopatra" which Ad says is designed like a picture frame but photo on ad is hard to see. Nice looking ladies watch! 17J 5AB with an X date code on movement. with 10k RGP case and original strap - all in excellent condition. One small scratch on original dial. I added NOS 5AB BM10 hands to make it easier to see the time on this small watch....but I have NOS 5AB GM10 ones too if it needs to be exact!

Sorry for the poor photo.  Do not have any tools to open watch back.

It says it is self winding and the dial is divided into four pie shaped pieces. 

Any help would be appreciated.

The back is engraved 1955.

Thank you in advance

Hello, new to the forum.  I just picked up this Bulova in an auction, but I have been unable to find any info on the model.  Is anyone familiar with this watch?
