Bulova 8AH - ETA 1000

I've had this movement and dial on my bench forever.  It's a Doxa with a nice square face.  Been looking for a case for it and finally found a square Sutton case with a Buloba 8AH in it.  The Doxa fit like a glove.  Turns out the Doxa 98 and Bulova 8AH are both ETA 1000s.  

Not a clue what this is. Anyone have an ID?

 Dont think I have seen this model before.

  • It has a 1948 8ae movement although to me the design looks older...
  • Note the recesses crown, almost looks like it hasn't got one when face on.
  • Also the wide sides 
  • Thin claw like lugs.
  • It takes the CX873C G-S crystal (if that is meant for just this model though, again I dont know).

 Anyway, here it is. I'll add it to database when we know what it is. Gary

Bulova cases

 Hi all, I really have searched for this answer but can't find it. I have several vintage Bulova watches that are not in Bulova cases, Such as a 1929 President the case says American Standard Watch Co. My question, did Bulova use other case mfg.? I have cases marked American Standard but they also have Bulova's name. Also the watch in question the case has an F stamped in it, does this mean Gold Filled? this case test's 14K.

Any help would be appreciated, Thanks Dennis
