This is a very meant bond special. The watch looks like it was put away in a drawer and never used. There are no jewelers marks on the case to indicate it was clean. No scratches on the movement; it looks new, right out of the factory. This is a very collectible watch. Movement: Illinois grade 163, 60 hour, Bunn Special, marked double roller, adjusted time and six positions, serial number 5,321,276. All lettering in red. The movement is absolutely gorgeous; runs fine but probably should be cleaned as it's been in the safe for 20 years. Dial: Illinois Bunn Special, 23 jewel 60 hour marked on dial. The dial is perfect. Case: The case shows no wear to the engraving. Screwback marked Illinois Bunn Special model number 173, keystone watch case, 14 K gold filled. The case is green gold. Unfortunately, someone sanded off some initials on the back cover such that the brass is showing through. A idiotic thing to do!! This would require a gold maker to fix it if it's important to have a perfect case. Alternatively, if you are looking for a perfect movement for the perfect case, this might be a good fit if the serial numbers are close. Payment must be received within three days using PayPal.
