Description
1947 Bulova "His Excellency" — 21 jewel manual wind, serviced March, 2026. Clean rectangular Art Deco case, original silver dial with small seconds, and the kind of honest age you want on a real vintage piece. This is not a fake-polished “like new” watch — it still shows its life, and that is exactly what gives it character. Inside is a proper 21 jewel adjusted Bulova 3-AH movement from 1947. The watch has been serviced and brought back to good running condition, so this is not just a display piece or parts watch. It is a real old Bulova with strong presence, slim proportions, and classic mid-century styling that wears far better than most modern dress watches. A great piece for someone who appreciates original vintage watches, early American brand history, and elegant tank-style design. Honest, attractive, and wearable.
