1952 Vintage Augusta National Golf Club Member Watch Bulova

A hard to find 1952 Bulova watch made for an Augusta National Golf Club member.  The watch is in great shape and in working order.  Given it's age, it looks incredible.   Beautiful collectible from the era of Sam Snead and Ben Hogan.

Sam Snead won his first Masters Tournament in 1949 in spectacular style as he closed with a pair of 67s. He was rewarded by becoming the first golfer to earn a green jacket for his win.

Two years later, Snead was in position to add another green jacket to his collection. Tied for the lead after 54 holes, he skied to an 80 in the final round to drop into a tie for eighth. The collapse opened the door for Ben Hogan to win his first Masters.

Snead bounced back in 1952 with 70 in the first round and 67 in the second to seize the 36-hole lead. But he slipped to 77 in the third round, which left him tied with Hogan after 54 holes. Leaders weren’t paired together in those days, and Snead went out ahead of Hogan in the final round.
