Just sneaking in, 1948!

Any idea as to what the model name is? So I can upload it to My Bulova. The Madonna?

Stephen, here's your Boluva's sister, a 1951 Bulova with identical dial but different hands and a 10k gold-filled case.

I saved this from the scrap pile, buying it from one of these outfits that buys scrap gold and silver. It needs a new crystal, and I have to service the movement, but being that it is platinum with diamonds and channel set saphires, it will be a stunning piece when completed.

That Waltham is still a great looking watch, Samie. I'd like to find one like it.
