Super clean watch straight from the original owner's sock drawer. Retirement watch dated 1977 with extra band links and booklet in original clam Shell. Presents like a new watch. Raised ring around crystal is polished; remainder of front displays light machining around the polished ring.
Back and movement both dated N7. No case serial number. Face is marked "T-Swiss MVT-T" Inside of case back marked Hong Kong.
Faux bezel ring is actually part of the single piece case. Found one in stainless in the Db ID'ed as a Clipper, and one in unknowns.
I sometimes find the award watches with personalizations to be in the best vintage condition; this one looks to be in very good shape. I'm not sure the band is original to the watch. I don't think Bulova would have used the multi-size extenders between the lugs. The watch is similar to the Clipper, and I would be tentative on id'ing as such.

I agree it's quite possibly not a stock band, however, it's a perfect two-tone (polish/buff finish) to the watch.
Based on the fact the extra links are with it in a little ziplock bag, and watch appears unworn; my guess is the award giver offered a choice of band to the awardee and it was presented on this band as opposed to leather or a bracelet. In many cases in the past, 25 yr+ retirees at big companies were given a choice of award from a catalog. I know that IBM for instance used to give a choice of Rolex or Omega - leather or bracelet, yellow or white. Those days are gone.
