What movement was this case used for any bunn special or was it specifically for the 161 and 163 models.

I have no idea of the answer. But the bow in the photo of the watch book is different than your bow.

I posted a picture of this same case and was told it would contain a 1930 Bunn Special 163. Search old posting to find additional information. I think Lin called it a droppy bow #28 case.

Closer look at the bow. SO this was "only used on the 163.

What you have there is the "droopy bow" variant of the BS Case Model #28, as Keith pointed out. It would be correct for any 60-Hour Bunn Special from 1928 onwards, including but not limited to the 161 & 163 series.


Best Regards,

Ed

Is this case going to be for sale? A "friend" was asking.

OK Ed that is the answer I was looking for Thanks. Since I am getting flooded with emails on this case, the easiest and fairest way to handle it is to let you know when I post it up on auction.
