    Yeah…dude’s a parts maniac. I thought my little stash was groovy- I ain’t got nothing on camu.

    I have found crystals and crowns using factory parts numbers, but the bezels are indeed the most illusive.

    Here's my stash, alternate packaging and part numbers only tie back to case codes:

    The vintage Rolex people know nothing about parts scarcity. Try collecting watches from a company that has for all intents and purposes been dead for 40 years.

    Bulova is currently owned by Citizen and I’m a big fan of the reissues they are doing. But sadly they have no link to the original Bulova and there hasn’t been support or parts for vintage Bulova for decades. Thus the hoarding.
