FOR SALE IS A RARE 1969 BULOVA SEA-KING WITH CRAZY COOL MIDNIGHT BLUE DIAL IN EXCELLENT CONDITION.
CASE: NEAR MINT ALL-STEEL CLASSIC ROUND CASE MEASURING 33.2mm NOT INCLUDING CROWN BY 40mm LUG TO LUG. ALL THE ORIGINAL SHARP LINES AND CRISP EDGES ON THIS BEAUTY ARE WONDERFULLY INTACT.
DIAL: MINIMALISM AND SIMPLICITY DEFINED. I LOVE THAT RICH MIDNIGHT BLUE SUNBURST DIAL IN MINT CONDITION . THE TRITIUM LUME PLOTS ON THIS ONE ARE IN PERFECT PRESERVED CONDITION AND MATCH THE LUME ON THOSE CLEAN STEEL STICK HANDS. THOSE APPLIED DIAMOND FACETED STEEL MARKERS GIVE THIS ONE SOME ULTRA SWAGGER. BUT, THE CROWNING FEATURE FOR ALL SEA KING WATCHES IS THAT FESTIVE WHITE WHALE.
MOVEMENT: THIS GENTLEMAN RUNS ON A BULOVA IN-HOUSE 17 JEWEL SWISS MADE AUTOMATIC WHICH HAS BEEN RUNNING FLAWLESSLY AND KEEPING GOOD TIME. SERVICE HISTORY IS UNKNOWN, BUT THIS BULOVA HAS BEEN BEHAVING LIKE A CHAMP OVER A WEEK OF ON/OFF WRIST OBSERVATION.
WATCH COMES ON A CLASSIC BROWN CALF LEATHER STRAP WHICH ANCHORS THIS OLD KING OF THE SEA TO THE WRIST NICELY. IF YOU ARE A BULOVA FANATIC...OR A VINTAGE WATCH COLLECTOR OF GOOD STANDING, YOU ARE GOING TO WANT TO JUMP ON THIS HIGHLY COLLECTIBLE PIECE. I JUST LOVE THE BULOVA SEA-KING LINE, AND THIS IS AN EXTREMELY RARE AND UNIQUE EXAMPLE.
