Thank you for sharing it with us Htrdford1. I've got a question for you. Which Bulova movement is in your watch? It will be the one number and two letters in the rectangle shape stamped on the back of the movement.

It may very well be the code for 1943 but if there is a Triangle near the stem it becomes 1945.

1943 Bulova Cocktail Watch works for me.   I recall we lumped several of these gold and jeweled cased watches with confirmed ads but no names as "Cocktail" watches a while back but when I searched the Model Look up name I could not find it.

It took me a while to search them out as well.

"Model" on name search dropdown

"Cocktail" is sub category - last one on page after number designation Models.

Nice ad match Mercury!  Model "Cocktail" works for me, like mine here put under that name https://mybulova.com/watches/1943-model-cocktail-9743.  It is a beautiful watch.  It is possible the Bulova was polished off at some point.  I have one 14K like that where I can barely make it out under a loupe.

I can see what looks like an X but am struggling to see the triange.

I'd be happy to ID as a 1943 Bulova Cocktail for now to group with the others.
