    You can buy them here www.bulova.com :D

    Oh, and great job for the people who found the watch and took the pains to return it, and to Royal Mail who traced the addressee!

    That's incredible! You've got to be kidding. Not only the fact that they found the watch, no only that they got the watch back to him over 60 years later but that IT WAS STILL WORKING! Amazing.
