Looking for that special vintage timepiece that will have all your friends asking "where did you get that?", then this is the watch for you! These get tougher to find every day, especially in this fine condition. This watch has been serviced by a master watchmaker and comes with a new leather strap. This watch is READY TO GO. If you want the ABSOLUTE BEST in vintage timepieces, with no compromise service, look no further. CLICK HERE to review my feedback and bid with complete confidence! In 1875 Joseph Bulova, a 23-year-old Czech immigrant, opened a small jewelry shop on Maiden Lane in New York City.
By 1912 Bulova had set up its first plant dedicated
to the production of watch components and their assembly into jeweled
movements in Bienne, Switzerland. In 1923 the name
Bulova Watch Company, Inc. was adopted. Bulova perfected a new concept in the
watch industry of total standardization of parts. Every part of a Bulova watch
was made with such precision (standardized to the ten thousandth of an inch)
that it was interchangeable with the same part in any other Bulova watch. This
revolutionized the servicing of watches in the industry. The Bulova Watch Company went public on the American Stock
Exchange in 1927.
This is an
excellent example of a very rare Gothic Watch Company Jar Proof Art Deco timepiece. Looks a lot like
Bulova Lone Eagle and
features a 14K Gold Plated case. Just check out the fantastic detail around the bezel! This watch
was made in the late 1920's. It is double signed and measures
35mm end to end
and 28mm wide, including the silver crown. The 14K Gold Plated case is in excellent
condition. The movement is a 15 jewels Gothic New York Swiss made which sets
and winds smoothly and is
running well and keeping excellent time. The dial is very unique,
featuring a fantastic silver face with open numerals that
compliment the beautiful period hands. The crystal
is in excellent condition. The back of the case has
no personal engraving and is in good condition. It is marked on the
inside PIONEER WATCH CASE CO WARRANTEED SUPER QUALITY. Comes fitted with a
brand new 16mm leather strap. A very cool
watch. |
