History of Bulova Watches
From the days of when the only clocks available where sun dials to the times of the pocket watch, and through to the present day, people have always been obsessed with keeping track of the time.

Shipping and handling
This watch will be safely packed and shipped
using US Postal Service Flat rate box with tracking number.
Expected delivery is normally within 7 days from
date of payment. I ship in 24 hours from
clearance of funds and send an email with tracking number.
International shipping: Due to regular priority mail packages sometimes being held up at customs, I advise Express shipping. Unlike priority, there is a tracking number and insurance available, and although it is more expensive, it is far more reliable. If you choose regular priority mail, I cannot be held responsible for shipping problems. Thank you.

PayPal.
Please keep in mind that due to the age of these watches, although I fully stand
behind my description, I can't guarantee continued time accuracy and ongoing repair after they leave my shop. I am not a watchmaker, merely a collector. I briefly check the mechanisms and cases for state of repair, and check time accuracy over 24 hours. Photos are considered a part of the description.
