Well, there Ya go...

1930 'SKY KING'

 

I have several of these oldies with the Gold Crowns and wonder if they were the norm of era, thinking they were.

Nice one Geoff.

Wonder if this case has an "F" stamped between the lugs?  Also wondering if it has the "AAA" btwn Bulova Quality and '27 patent date on inside case back sig?

Will, the "F" is present as you suspected. Case is signed Bulova 14K Golf Filled New York. Neither 'Quality' or 'AAA' is present.
