Title: Bulova Mantel Clock question
Post by: JasonVegas on May 09, 2009, 03:48:53 PM

Was given this clock, and since I dont really know much about them, I was wondering if someone could help me identify this clock. It's a Bulova, says Westminster below the word Bulova, and underneath the 6 it says "Made in W Germany".

Just curious as to exactly which one it is, and if its actually worth anything or just another $50 or $60 mantel clock. I've tried searching all over the net and havent been able to find an exact match to it. A few appear similar, but there are differences, especially in the types and style of digits on the face, as well as the style of the legs.

Thanks for your help

Just another $50.00 To $60.00 Dollar clock. westminster is refering to the chimes.

Totally agree with with D&b on both posts.

Have you had a look/see inside of the clock?  Many times there are identifying numbers/info inside.  Recommend that you have someone who knows clocks take a look/see.
