A vintage 1954 Bulova "Commodore" men's watch, featuring a Swiss-made 17 jewel 10BUC movement that has been inspected, fully serviced, and timegrapher regulated to ensure accuracy.
The lightly polished one piece case (31.5mm excluding the crown) is in very good condition, with light age wear and slight shearing along the rear of the lugs. The dial, as you can see is pristine and the brand new Dutcher Brothers crystal I installed will keep it that way. The gilt hands are absolutely perfect, not one speck of lume is missing, and that's very uncommon today. The crown has ample grip and it winds and sets easily.
The 10BUC movement has been regularly serviced over the decades and keeps time with great accuracy! With an amplitude north of 300°, it's in perfect health. The 10BUC is an exceptionally well-designed and robust movement.
With its pristine dial, clear crystal, polished gold case, and perfectly preserved hands, this mid-century Commodore is bound to make one collector very happy indeed.
