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 rare Bulova timepiece. It features a 14K Gold Plated case with excellent sweeping lines. This watch was made in the mid 1950's.  It is triple signed and measures 37mm end to end and 28mm wide, including the crown.  The 14K Gold Plated case is in excellent condition.  The movement is a 15 jewels Bulova 10BC which sets and winds smoothly and is running well and keeping excellent time.  The dial is very unique,  featuring a fantastic champagne  face with raised numerals that compliment the beautiful hands.  The domed crystal  is brand new.  The back of the case has no personal engraving and is in excellent condition.  It is marked on the inside BULOVA 14K ROLLED GOLD PLATE BEZEL STAINLESS BACK NEW YORK.  Comes fitted with a brand new 16mm leather strap.  A very cool watch.  

This is a beautiful example of a 14K Gold Plated Vintage Bulova watch that is over 50 years old.
