Hello to you all, I am a new member. I have a Bulova watch I was given as a child. It has “10K RGP Bezel” and “Mo” (for year 1960) on the stainless steel back. I am trying to determine the model. Here is some information I have for it in addition to the attached photo. Original gold band says ADMIRAL USA, ADJUST-O, with “5/8” on each end. Crystal is shape T (Tonneau). Found this info on this website. Case serial # is E869137. Face has 12, 3, 9, with straight bars for other numbers. At 6 position there is a sub-second dial. Various AI information I found says it’s a President E or Director model but I can not find a photo of either of these that match my watch.
Any help in determining the model would be greatly appreciated. I would also be interested in finding a newspaper or magazine advertisement for it.
Thank your for posting your watch. Can you add photos of the case back and movement. Based on the M0 date code this is a 1960 Bulova Senator "N" based on the Bulova line books.
Thank you for your reply and model identification. I would like to add the photo of the case back but I do not see an option for this here. I am a new member. Would you be kind enough to enlighten me as to how to do this. Thank you.
P.S. What are the two prices shown in the image above? Is $49.50 the 1960 original price?

Dealer Price - Manufacturers Retail Price, yes $49.50 was the retail sales price
JimDon5822, I figured it out. See case back photo. Thank you.

Thanks to all you Panel Members, you've been a great help.
I should ad that the bracelet on this watch looks to be a perfect match to the watch. The design matches between the lugs and even though the linebook picture shows a different bracelet, I think this most likely was a factory original.

Yes, this is exactly as it was given to me for my "Conformation" when I was 11 years old, (a long time ago, ha, ha).
