Could you please explain the A8 on the movement? Is it an actual stamp of A8. If so this would date the movement to 1948.

I am unable to find an ad for this 14K gold watch. I do see a circle symbol on the movement as well as the leading 4 in the serial number; 1944 Unknown

Hello DShirleySB, welcome to myBulova. This is a nice rose gold model. I too have searched both our advert and our watch data base and don't see anything quite like it.

For now I would also say 1944 Unknown. thank you for sharing it.

The movement is actually '*AE'(I can't tell if it is an 8 or 9)

8AE most likely, as there was no 9''' version as far as I'm aware.
