5 diamonds on top and 5 on bottom where the band connects to the watch case.
The M5 on top right of your movement pic indicates 1965 (M=1960's, 5=fifth year)
Also, it appears we have another movement with the "chevron" as indicated just to the right of the M5. I think this is the first one that's not on a 10"' movement. Although, it is a 23j.

No biggie with the 2 post's, it happens all the time. Someone adds a watch in the What Is It forum and the debate begins, then when it is added to the database sometimes much of the old discussion happens all over again.
The chevron I was refering to isn't the model it's a small symbol that has been appearing on the movements that has some wondering what it means. I have one on the 10BZ movement in my 1965 Sea Cloud "C". Yours has it just to the right of the M5. It looks like an army private's stripe.
I'm not that knowledgable on the ladies watches but I would guess it's a Bulova 23 model.
Have you looked through the 1965 ads yet?

5AR is stamped on the inside back of the watch face.
M5 is stamped on the inside back also making this a 1965

For your first watch added to the db you've done pretty well with providing the pertinent info. The only thing I would point out is the that the Crystal Details refers to the shape and measurements of the glass. The # of stones and their placement on the dial can be added under Additional Info.
Oh, and welcome aboard.

Thanks, I updated the Crystal Details. I tried researching this as much as I could before posting. So I read through a lot of the posts on here so kinda new what to look for. Never would have thought to look inside the case for info without this site. You guys are great!!!!!
Yeah, we're a little light on ads from the 60's. I don't think it's a frankenbully, we just can't confirm 100% the exact model. With both the movement and case being dated to '65 it's most likely original. I'm sure the more experienced members will chime in tomorrow.
