    Asking $50 for this well worn watch, only picked this up a month ago but another incoming means something must go....

    Pleasant patina punctuated by a deco numeral 12 and double indexes at the other cardinals with radium dots inside all indexes that have turned black over time. Sword hour and minute also have some fill but it's not nearly as dark, simple stick style subsidiary seconds sweeps around subtle crosshairs above the six.

    Calibre 11AF Swiss unadjusted 17 jewel hand wind movement is marked M3 indicating 1963 manufacture. It's keeping good time and has about a 30 hour power reserve the few times I've worn it however it certainly would benefit from a service before daily use.

    Stainless steel case measures 33mm diameter excluding unsigned crown and 39mm lug to lug. The acrylic crystal is clear and slightly domed giving the watch a 7.5mm height. Snap on case back also marked M3 below Bulova signature. Though the dial and case back boast "waterproof" not recommended for anything wetter than hand washing 54 years on.

    $50 includes PP fee and USPS Priority 2-3 day shipping in CONUS, slightly slower 6-10 day for ROW. Plenty of positive feedback here and on other enthusiast forum plus 137 on eBay all as peatnick. Since I am a collector thinning the herd no trades or returns please. Happy to answer any questions via PM. Thanks to ΩF for the space!
