1951 Bulova Beau Brummell is a good match.

Team we might need to revisit these watches as an official linebook (BAWD0132) which covers 1950 and 1951 lists this watch as a different model.

The Cambridge.

There are a bunch of other examples in the database which we'll need to re-evaluate.

Further to this. It might be a year cut over thing or some other difference like gold hands vs black hands.

Did Bulova make a Beau Brummel during those years and if so, what does it look like in the line book?

No mention of Beau Brummell in the same linebook detailing 1950 and 1951 models.

EDIT: I was incorrect making this statement. An initial search did not find any reference, but a subsequent search did.
