Here is my latest rescue. It was being sold as parts and I managed to acquire the movement and the dial. It is a 16 size, 21 jewel,Bunn Special with the fishscale demaskeen pattern. Less than 2500 of them were done this way and it is a pleasant change from the 150,000 or so of the 4th rayed pattern so commonly seen on ebay. It seems to be running just fine but in a borrowed case. I borrowed a case from another watch for now and will look for some nicer hands. I bought the movement and dial for about $300 so I don't know as the seller made much selling it as parts. Glad to keep it alive though and at least the two can be kept together. Steve | ||

Great acquisition Steve, the less common variants like this one are stand-outs in any collection. And the good feeling of keeping an original watch together adds greatly to the enjoyment. Lindell | |||

Steve, Great save of a rare movement. Hope you can find a nice case for it. They are getting scarcer all the time it seems. John III | |||
