A 1945 Bulova "Buckingham" pocket watch with a robust 17 jewel 17AH movement that has been inspected, fully serviced and timegrapher regulated to ensure accuracy.
The 10k gold plated case is in fine condition with light age wear. The pale cream dial has a few small imperfections, otherwise, it's clean with raised gold Arabic indices. The Bulova logo is crisply legible and the elongated hands are a lovely polished gold. The crystal is clear and scuff free. The crown has plenty of grip and the watch winds and sets easily. The matching 10k gold plated caseback is in excellent condition, with very minimal age wear.
Inside, the 17 jewel 17AH movement keeps time with great accuracy, thanks to the careful application of appropriate Moebius lubricants. With a healthy amplitude, it's good to go for years.
The watch comes on an aftermarket fob. Bulova pocket watches were slim, tactile, and very stylish. They're phenomenal conversation starters every time they make an appearance!
Please note that all mechanical watches, including automatics, require occasional winding in order to function properly. The watch will be well packaged and shipped out within one business day via USPS Ground Advantage. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask prior to purchase and I'll respond promptly. Thank you for looking and have a great day.
