1976 Vintage Christian Dior / Bulova Ladies Manuel Wind Watch. This watch was designed by Phillipe Guiborge while at the house of Dior just before he moved on to Chanel to design Chanel's first ready-to-wear collection. The watch was produced by Bulova using it's finest quality movements. In 1976, Lauren Hutton and Sophia Loren were a few of the A list celebrities who wore Dior, which was headed by Marc Bohan.

Marc Bohan put Philippe Guiborge in the design seat for this collection. Phillipe Guiborge was one of the hip, young designers who shook up the French Haute couture in the 1960s while he worked for Jacques Faith and helped design his ready to wear collection and was invited by Marc Bohan to move to Dior in the 1960s. In 1975, shortly before this watch was launched, Phillipe Guiborge left Dior and went to Chanel where he created the first ready-to-wear line (in 1977). This was most likely the last collection designed by Guiborge for Dior before he left for Chanel.

Guiborge went on from Chanel in 1983 to design his own label but sadly, his life ended shortly thereafter. Chanel was then taken over by Lagerfeld who has headed the house of Chanel ever since. Movement: HIgh quality 17 Jewel Bulova Swiss Movement is a manual wind movement. It has been newly serviced by a master watchmaker. It runs and keeps time in good order.

Dial condition and detail: Good original brushed metallic blue dial with painted white markers in Roman numerals at the 12 o'clock and 6 o'clock positions, and baton markers at the 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock positions. On close inspection, a few minor marks can be seen, but this does not detract from the beauty of this watch. Case condition and detail: Excellent Bulova case in a framed bridge style.
