Bulova Watch Pen

[Dalepenkala]

Well this is my 1st attempt at a watch pen. I sent the watch's to CaptG and had Gary make the blanks for me. This is the 1st. Its a Bulova watch that I acquired about 35yrs ago from a garage sale back when my grandfather and I repaired watches and clocks together.

I made it a Majestic in Rhodium and Gold. I have a Bock 2 tone fine point nib on order for this pen. I should get this Monday or Tuesday so I can replace and tune the nib first part of the week.

I made the barrels extra thick just because I didn't want to go thru into the parts, particularly the face of the watch.

Comments are always welcome good or bad.

Thanks for looking!

Thanks much guys! I can't tell you how careful I was making this pen! The majority of the time was the polishing of it. I tryed to make it as flawless as possible. My final inspection was with a 8x loop.

Thanks!
