Superb Bulova Ambassador solid 18ct gold gents wristwatch.

~~ Totally original throughout ~~

This is a very fine example of a gents classic wristwatch made by the world renowned premier maker Bulova.

This is the classic Ambassador model, and has one of the best movements ever produced by Bulova during the golden age of swiss watchmaking.

The watch has an automatic self winding 30 jewel micro rotor movement and is one of the slimest automatic watches ever produced.

It has a solid 18ct gold case and has a new Bulova leather strap, it comes with its original box.

As you would expect from Bulova the watch is fully marked on the case, the dial and and buckle.

Bulova are one of the most exclusive watchmakers in the world and this watch certainly has that understated elegance that whispers class.

The watch case measures 35mm in diameter not including the crown and it is very heavy.

Overall this is a watch in beautiful condition and has that elegance which never dates.

The watch has just been fully overhauled and serviced by Alan Williams FBHI It has been fully authenticated and found 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 throughly cleaned in a 3 stage ultasonic cleaning process.

The watch 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, in the case of waterproof watches a full waterproof presure test is carried out to manufacturers specification.

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.

The watch is working perfectly and the movement comes with a full 1 year warranty.

This serial number on the movement dates this watch to 1960 and would certainly make a fabulous gift for someone celebrating a 50th birthday this year.
