1941 Conrad. Rose gold plating is nice and will polish up well. Crystal should polish up as well. Picked this up on the bay last week. Movement needs a going through as it will wind and then stop. Face is ok, and i think i will keep it original. Early watches are too small for my big wrist, so I decidied to put this one up for sale. Would be interested in a trade for a later, larger bulova of same condition. PM me for details.
I just recently acquired one of these and need crystal info. Do you know what crystal it takes??

JP- there's at least some crystal measurements for this Conrad record. Linked record says:
Tall, curved and approx. 19 mm square

Thanks Wil. I will see what I have. I just got in about 1000 new SUC and GS crystals in complete sets with no cherry picking by any one.

I have one of these Conrad in a box somewhere. I'll dig out and confirm crystal measurements.

I don't pay much attention to what eBay sellers call or say about the watches they are selling. Folks often use "hype words" like Driver or Art Deco to help with sales. To take a guess at answering your question... Because the seller likes money- nothing wrong with that.

Don't we all. Glad to know it means nothing though. Thanks again Will.
On another note, I bought a large batch of crystals and one batch was SUC and came with a nifty cross rference manual that is 14 pages long and covers every SUC made with cross to GS,BB and AM Perfit.. I don't know if it is the same one we got before because it is so many pages long. I finally got my old desk top computer up and running again and will be able to flat scan now so I will try to do that next week and send you a copy if you like. It is dated 1955.
