My Daughter picked this up at a garage sale yesterday and I'm possibly interested in buying it from her! Its a Vintage 1975 Hexagonal design S/S Bulova LED watch. I know that Bulova didnt actually make any LED watches but bought from various other companies and slapped on the Bulova name but thats all I do know. This one needs a battery to be able to obviously tell if it's working or not but she plans on doing that tomorrow on her day off! Are these particular watches worth anything? The bracelet sadly enough is not the original and I may be hard pressed to find an original!

I have no idea...but it looks like someone etched their social security number on the back of the case.
Interesting looking watch....

Yes I know it's an LED! I'm still trying to find out a possible value on it! (assuming it works)

(assuming it works) Unless it is a vintage Seiko or Citizen from the era, it's only worth the price of the battery you put in it. Sadly watches with Swiss modules from this time period are not worth much at all. That said, if it speaks to you and a fresh battery brings it back to life, go for it. I have several dozen old quartz digitals that still work fine if I stick a battery in them but I doubt that even the ones with recognized brand names on them are worth more than the price of a fresh battery.
