Hi  Guy, thanks for sharing a really cool watch. I just love these old beauties. We differentiate watches that are made of some 'non-Bulova' components (like the case on your watch) as Non-Conforming as they are not identifiable as a standard Bulova model. I REALLY like the design of your watch case, it's wonderful. We will classify this watch as such but it's still a dandy. BTW the 10 AN with crescent moon (and a serial number) is a likely a 1928 vintage.

Very cool, indeed.

By the way, the watch no longer works. Are there any watch repair facilities in the US that is recommended for this type of watch?

Welcome to myBulova and thank you for sharing this cool watch with us.  I agree it is Non-conforming but it is a great piece just the same.
