Bulova Tank Two-Tone Hinged Case
Here is another gent's Bulova tank for your viewing and can be added to the Bulova database if so desired. The 24.50 x 36.50 case is yellow gold with white gold trim on a hinged case. The movement is a 9AF. The case back is marked Jan.11, 1927, Bulova quality.

Real nice Ernest. Those 1920's watches were certainly very stylish.

Is there a date code on the movement? I can't see one in the picture, but it should be there for that vintage.

What is the serial number? I see it there but just can't read it.

The database is a do it yourself operation. It would be good to have it listed if you have the time.

Regards, Jim

Ernest & Jim, I've seen this style before but I'm unsure if it is a Suzanne, Windsor or a Pesident. It would be wonderful to find out. As would the movement symbol and serial number.

I'll add it to the Bulova Database

Hopefully someone can shed some light on this particular style.

Steven, according to Bruce's chart, it would be a 1930's model with a serial number of 456764.

Wonderful, I've updated the Bulova Database.

I'll add a post if I get any addition information on this particular model.
