Buy American! NOS 90s Bulova with ETA 2834-1....

midsized, 38mm to the screwdown crown....! auto....love it!


3 midsized comparison by thianwong1, on Flickr

Thian, what an AWESOME picture as always !!! ..It's extremely cool seeing all of these
watches together like this. Especially when a couple of them have a similar style, or theme
to them like the Ricoh, and Bulova. You can really have alot of fun seeing how the different
companies put their own twist on that design, and even though they have similar bezels,
and markings. There are still some interesting differences like the more rectangular hands
on the Bulova, as well as the thin markers ALL the way around, and of course it saying
"Bulova" on the dial too. Something else I am noticing about your picture here, is how
the 38mm size looks in comparison to your other watches here. To be honest, although
you can see the Bulova, and Ricoh are smaller than the Omega. The size difference really
doesn't seem that drastic. It's pretty cool to see sir. As are all of these watches together
in one place like this. Thanks for the comparison !

Well, I have a soft spot for American watches...nostalia? Not sure.....but I have an old Elgin Sportsman hanging around too...Not many USA made watches now! Of course Bulova was bought out by CITIZEN and the name brand is making a comeback....

It's really amazing how many American watch companies there used to be Thian, and this Bulova, along with
that Elgin of your's must be something very special to have. By the way, thanks for the info about Bulova,
and Citizen also. Definitely have been noticing what Bulova has been doing more, and more lately.
