This 60-year old Bulova is leaving me for a new home.

Oh, dear, no entries for over a month!
So today...do you know, I think this is still my favourite watch in many ways.

Re: Vintage watch of the day (30 years+)

Sort-of vintage: it has a 1958 serial number, but has been "updated" with 70s/80s dial and hands...
