I recently inherited my grandmother's watch, which was a wedding gift from my grandfather. I believe they were married around 1952. My mother found it in an Eaton's box which was stored in a green garbage bag. I'd like to get her cleaned up and oiled to wear for special occasions. It was also stored with an alternate bracelet, which I would like to have swapped on. I feel it is much better suited and compliments the face and overall design. I live in Toronto, ON Canada and wonder if you can recommend a location for it to be serviced. I am also interested in the history of the watch so I may put a name to the face.

Mark (fifth avenue) is right - the jewel count will help ID your lovely little Bulova. Perhaps you could bring it to a jeweler and have them pop the back off and tell you the jewel count of the movement.
Mark - we might also be looking at the Excellency line as well?
