Pictures, pictures, pictures! We need pictures. And did I mention pictures?
Seriously--we need pictures of the front, of the insides, of the case, inside and out. Then we might be able to help you. We'll do our best.
P.S. We don't value watches on this site. We do try to help you identify your watch by date and model name. You may be able to use that information to set a value, but that would be up to you.
You will have to post a picture or two of it for a positive ID, sounds like it could be a Bulova 23 model and the value would be determined by condition, both mechanical and appearence.
L9 = 1959 model year, and there should be a few ad's under the information tab.
eBay auctions is a good source to compare value, just find one like yours and see what it sells for.

Nope, it doesn't mean that. It simply means that the ad I found during a quick search was from 1954. Watches were often manufactured for more that one year. Your watch is "dated" by the symbol on the movement, e.g., L9 = 1959, and the corresponding symbol on the back of the case. They don't always match, but are usually within a year or two.
Here is a 59' ad for the Bulova 23
and here is a link to Wayne's Black dial in the database

The dials can vary, and we, presumably, don't yet have all the ads that were produced. The database is a work in progress. However, given what we do know, I think you can assume that you have a valid 1950s "Bulova 23". Both the case and the dial are shown in the ads.

Just for reference on what they called that model in 1959, they made many different case styles, dial combos ect.
Here is one like it that sold on eBay recently, the value will depend on condition. These are quite common as the made a bunch of them for many years, so you should be able to find some listed there.

Is a good idea to port on Ebay. This clock is so impressive and also it can be expensive. You must exploit it!
