Well, I picked this up some months back the price was right the dial was in bad shape had this blackish lume that was hard to see. But it was made in 1958 my birth year. Was going to get the dial relumed to match the hands but found a dial on eBay and was cheaper than reluming it. I am a big collector of issued watches I have a few that could be birth year issued watches but a guess a Hanhart 417 and a Junghans issued Bund but no records of manufacture but this Bulova a sure thing with date code on movement. A member here had one on a vintage looking brown leather bund strap looked great on it anyone know of one for 16mm lugs they make these look bigger on the wrist that would work.

Glad you saved this BULOVA. 👍

I have a similar one which was the beginning of my collecting-adiction.
