It takes a licking and keeps on ticking... For the Retro "Eagle Squadron" / "V.B.S." Volunteer in me, I have and wear a 1936 Doxa Chronograph.

JEEP said:That was some buy - sometimes one is just lucky. I have done the same thing with cufflinks and tiebars a few times, half of the times I got something really good.
I believe that the Elgin with the blue crystal is a ladies watch, not mainly because og the size (though that is a factor too), but because of the blue crystal - I have never seen a gents watch from that time with anything else than a clear crystal (maybe once a 40s watch with a orange crystal - but I believe that was a modern addition).

J.L. Picard said:Here is a little trick to know the date of manufacture of your Bulova:
On the back of the case you will find a letter and a number.
A9 = 1949 (first time a date was written on the case).
L0 à L9 : years 50.
M0 à M9 : years 60.
N0 à N9 : years 70.
IE, L3 represents 1953, M7 represents 1967, N0 represents 1970.

When you say "years 50" or "years 60" are you referring to the decade?
