This watch was given to my mother by my father in the early 70's. It still works well and keeps good time although it has never been serviced.
The case back is marked NO (1970) and there are no other markings on the watch body.
The strap is hallmarked 18k white gold bracelet and is also marked "Made in UK". Can anyone help me identify this please.
Curved case measures 37mm lug to lug x 20.5mm wide non inclusive of the Crown while using Calipers. Rare Golden Grey Modern style Hour and Minute hands show on an equally rare original Black perimetered Dial with contrasting Golden Grey center, printed exploding Arabic numerals, Bulova logo and tracks. A Golden Grey Modern Seconds Hand shows on a Sub Dial fully obscuring the 6. Caseback is Gold. Strap is vintage Pig Leather finished with a Bulova signed Buckle of era.
*Fully serviced and restored 11/2010.
It's an L1, so 1951, handwinder with a 10BT inside.
It's my "year-of-birth-watch".
Anyone who knows the model-name?

18 K GOLD CASE WITH SQUARE BLACK FACE GOLD HANDS WITH DATE WINDOW
The case is in great shape for 1931. The crystal, dust cover, and movement are in good shape. Found in an ebay listing for "Vintage 1927 Bulova wristwatch stepped case".
Gentlemen, I give to you my 1931 Bulova Lone Eagle...
This is just an initial suprise and I'll ad it to my watches after a bit. Won it off Ebay last week for $83.00 rediculously good shape. Needs a cleaning and runs when laying down for some reason but stops when upright. I'm not trying to be ornery.... just excited to get one of these! Woot!
Watch serviced and new spring fitted in 1985, in good working order.
