Bulova “Conqueror” men’s Art Deco design wristwatch in 14K white gold fill with black enamel bezel, circa 1926.
The “Conqueror” has stylized eagle heads set in black enamel in each corner. Originally introduced around 1925, the watch was renamed the “Lone Eagle” for Charles Lindbergh following his historic solo crossing of the Atlantic in May of 1927. The “Conqueror” was priced at $50.00 in 1926. This example is in excellent condition with only a few specks of brassing to the tips of the lugs. Enamel is excellent with only a few tiny marks. Hinged caseback is excellent and unengraved. The hinge is broken, but the case still snaps together tightly. Case measures 33mm long and 26mm wide. Original dial is very good, hands have new luminous. Has new glass crystal. The watch is powered by its correct 17-jewel Bulova grade 10AP manual wind movement, just serviced and running strong.
