    Many thanks to NJNJCFP88, Citizenrich and Texas Toast for sharing their wonderful sunburst dials today. You have lit a fire under my lazy backside to give some long overdue love to my 1959 Bulova 23 "OW"....I replaced the ratty "gold tone" band it came with when I bought it with a tan pig skin band, and it is off to the WM Thursday for a new crystal and a tune up. Thanks guys! Cheers!!

    Unpopular square watch today, the weight of the bumper movement inside is pretty heavy.

    Resurrected from my stash. A mid ‘50s Gruen caliber 415, 17 jewels, manual wind. At some time in its past, someone decided not to have it repaired, so it has langoured for at least 45 years. It needed cleaning, balance staff, crown, and crystal, and it appears someone didn’t want to spend the money. It appears as though it had never been serviced, but it must have been a reliable watch for someone, since the gold filled case shows a bit of brassing. I liked the dial. I liked the case. The movement is pristine. So I did the repairs, and put a generic strap on it. Would you call the lugs “crab legged”.

    Found a black strap in the pile so threw it on the Mitsukoshi dial.
