Anyone recognize this Physicians?

I don't know if this is legit or not...  looks.... somewhat off?  That case looks not Bulova's style... but I dunno.  Maybe it's a rare breed or something.

Looks like a Medical Officer/Regulator case. The wrinkles on the horizontal bezel bars may be a model year addition.

This case sure doesn't look right.  I'd have to see the markings to be sure it was a Bulova case.  Hate the dial and the hands.

"It doesn't say anything on the back. I just removed the cover and it has '888,250' stamped on the inside of the back cover, also 'Watch Case Co. 10KRGP Bezel Stainless Back'. It says Bulova on the mechanism, also 'U.S.A., 17 Jewels, 10AX. It has a F/S adjustment."

 

I KNEW that was the wrong case for that watch... and your right... that is one ugly dial and hands combo.
