Before and after!

Project a few years ago. Bulova 218 tuning fork. Was originally a donor watch but I ended up fully restoring it inside and out.

Now it hums nicely and looks the part!

Fantastic restoration!

I think a nice crystal makes or breaks a watch! Great job!

Gorgeous…I want to pick up a hummer one of these days.

You should. They are an important part of horological history. Just the idea of turning vibration into motion to tell the time shows how good the engineers at Bulova were back in the 60s.

A mechanism you will never see again sadly.
