Watch Description

I am very interested in your collective opinions of this ladies 23 jewel Swiss movement Bulova with a tuning fork on the dial and stem. I assumed it was an Accutron but found a mechanical 23 jewel 5 BD movement inside. The exterior back is stamped Bulova and N7. The interior back is pad stamped 9920-1. The case has a dedicated articulating strap stamped 1.D France on one link. I do not see any metal type or content on the case or strap. Your assistance in identification is appreciated.

I agree with Bob that it is probably an international watch.

Too bad these watches can't talk but I think you guys have reached a logical conclusion based on the known facts. All we need now is a 1977 European 1977 brochure or catalog with a confirming photo ad to put a name on it. Thanks so much for all you help; this one's a keeper.

I moved my question on cleaning and servicing to the repair forum.
