Picked these two up at a local auction. Unfortunately the Seiko has been severely and not at all sensitively polished and the tiretread strap is not genuine, but it's running and the chrono runs and resets correctly. The Accutron is unpolished and unaltered, still with its original coffin link bracelet in good condition and humming beautifully. The pair cost me $AUD1250 ($US925) which probably means I got the Seiko for nothing anyway.
An unremarkable yet uncommon "Submarine" automatic in an HF case, circa 1955:
As best as I can tell, this model was made for one year only and was replaced by the T.12 collection in 1956.
This Bulova is really nice indeed and it reminds me about the other one that keeps nagging me to buy it... not only black dialed but waffled as well 😉
