Several years ago, I was approached by a guy who had a 14-karat yellow gold, 24-jewel, 18-size Bunn Special. He wanted the movement removed from the case as the case was going to a scrapper. I offered him more money for the watch than he was offered for the case. He had a hand shake deal with the scrapper, so he declined my offer. Several months later he phoned me back to offer me the movement only, for $500. I declined it. I have a model 1, a model 3 (fifth pinion model, two model 2, grade 4, “Railroaders” (4,000 made), a model 5, 21-jewel, Bunn Special, (all 18-size), and a 16-size Bunn Special 60-hour.
