These two watches belonged to my grandparents. They are both Bulova watches. What makes them unique is the emblem on the face. On the woman's watch, where the number 1 should be is what looks like a red cup holding a cross and flame. There are 2 drops of blood that drip down from it.
The same emblem is on the men's watch, but it is just inside the face by the number 2. I have looked under religious watches, and found nothing. I believe I was told that they recieved these watches after becoming deacons in their church. I would love to have some information on them.
