Hi -

Curious about this 1970 Bulova Oceanographer. I don't plan on selling it, as it is one of the favorites of my vintage Bulova collection; I love its classic styling. Just wondering what it is actually worth (probably not much), as I paid about $20 for it on eBay. The case is circular and 3.5cm in diameter.


The front reads:
BULOVA
Oceanographer

Automatic
333 Feet

The back reads:
BULOVA
Stainless Steel Case
10 KT. Gold Bezel Ring
J05759
N0 (which I know is 1970)

It is in perfect working order and keeps excellent time as long as it's worn; the hour and minute hands could use a bit of minor cleaning, as well as a few of the hour markers. Crystal is 95% perfect (a minor scratch exists between 9 and 7 which can barely be seen). The casing is flawless.

I have attached photos of the front and back, as well.

Thanks so much,
