Stunning Original Platinum and Diamond Bulova Ladies Cocktail Watch with Box C1957

1940 - 1960
Description

This is a very fine and beautiful example of a ladies wristwatch made by the world renowned premier Swiss maker Bulova.

It has a solid platinum case surrounded by a row of diamonds and then more diamonds to the shoulders which are set in platinum. The solid 14ct white gold integral bracelet is beautiful set with diamonds in a leaf design. The bracelet is articulated making it very fluid and simply glides around the wrist.

As you would expect from Bulova the diamonds are bright, crisp and evenly matchedl.

It is quite stunning with a white dial. Everything about this watch is original and is in wonderful condition.

A new glass has been fitted and the watch and bracelet professionally cleaned and polished.

The calibre 5AD 23 jewel movement is an absolute gem, this is a movement from the golden age of Swiss watchmaking.

It is fully marked as platinum on the case and the bracelet is hallmarked 14ct gold.

As you would expect from Bulova the watch is fully marked on the dial and movement.

It comes complete with its original presentation box and was retailed by Bulova on Fifth Avenue New York, unfortunately there is no inner cushion.

Bulova are one of the most exclusive makers in the world and this watch certainly has that understated elegance which resonates class.

The watch head measures 15mm wide not including the crown.

It fits a wrist size of 6.25" but this can easily be reduced by any competent jeweller should this be required.

The watch has just been fully overhauled and serviced and is guaranteed to be a genuine Bulova in all respects.

This watch has been fully and professionally overhauled, the process is highly detailed and meticulous.

The watch is stripped down to its component parts and each part is examined under a microscope for signs of wear, any worn parts are replaced with genuine manufacturers original parts. every part is then thoroughly cleaned in a 3 stage ultrasonic cleaning process.

The movement is then fully assembled using manufacturer approved oils and lubricants and is carried out in a clean room environment. The watch movement is then checked and adjusted for accurate time keeping. The cases are polished and the watch sealed.

Obviously this is not a cheap or quick process which is why our watches are sometimes a little more expensive than others but you can be assured our watches will give reliable and dependable service and will not require any further attention for many years.
