I have bought on a watch fair this thin lcd watch ( 20,00 euro ) and I think it is an Bulova or Microma.
There is no brand name on the watch, it is lost.
The module inside is the Same ESA module as in the Bulova.

Maybe there is a member who knows the exact brand and is it valuable.

Thanks,
Fred

Holy cow!

Another Bulova Phantom variant. Very, very cool. I've never seen this case style before (I have three Phantoms, two working, one Dugena branded, none with a case style like yours). Awesome find. The hidden lugs on your sample look great - it would look sensational on a mesh bracelet. Phantoms more commonly have a case style like this:

I have no idea about value. These are pretty rare items that are only of interest to a very small number of people, so value is likely highly variable and dependent upon finding someone who can appreciate such a rare little beast. I got two of mine on eBay for $120 each (the other was very graciously gifted to me by Kasper - I still have a box to send him in return). These were originally quite valuable - they sold for $500 new in 1979!

Just came in today the Microma Phantom 3 mm. lcd wacth chrono from Italy.

The module is not working yet I hope to get it running one of these day's.

I have put in the module from the Bulova to see how it looks, I like it.

Is there sombody who knows how to get the name shield of the Bulova Phantom ?

Bulova USA cannot deliver any part of this old watches.

Thanks and enjoy,
Fred

Hi Bonki,

i really like the Microma..any opportunities to buy or trade them or where did you find them. Any stories behind the 2 watches?

Kasper,

Well, it took a while but they finally showed up on eBay as expected:

Yes, i noticed it...its a pity Fred is not more board minded..i asked him privately and here what he wanted for it...never heard from him.

Yep, I noticed his listing too. Well priced, hope he gets what he wants. My personal experience is that patience sells out (never fall for bidding)
Nice watches. I hope he might come back to you Casper, eventually he's using the forum for his selling purposes..
