1932 Bulova Sky King in very fine original condition. White GF case bears Jan 11, 1927 patent date and has contrasting yellow gold in IXIXI pattern. Yellow gold Kreisler mesh bracelet is not period to the watch but looked so nice I decided to put it on anyway.

We have 17 Sky King watches in the db right now - One of them is arguably not a Sky King at all, 9 of them have the IXIXI pattern. The two 1930 IXIXI models do not have case serial numbers listed so they are movement dated and questionable for model year, they could be 1931 cases. The majority of the panel apparently agree that these are Sky Kings. We need to move on, we have 9 watches awaiting ID right now.
No proof that this is a Sky King. Very close and often misidentified(I've done it myself).
