Miss Liberty with 6 synthetic sapphires. Top middle stone looks to be a replacement. Nice filigree bracelet. Movement has the omega symbol for 1930 but case s/n starts with 9 so I'm thinking the movement might have been swapped. Would like to hear your thoughts on that.

Seems to be a far scarcer model than the Miss Liberty, lack of adverts also seems to back this up. Note, lugs are a lot smaller too and the centre stone seems a little offset compared to the miss liberty
Scanned the ads, nothing.
1930 'UNKNOWN'
1929 case with a 30 movement?
Could we be seeing a variation model for the Miss Liberty 29/30. Its possible Bulova didn't update the adverts. It wouldn't be the first time.
The outer case design is very simialr to the Miss America as indicated, but I too cannot find a match.
For comparison purposes
This case has the same design as mine yet it is a Miss Liberty, where as mine is an unknown. why? http://www.mybulova.com/watches/1929-miss-liberty-2571
Interesting. I just noticed the chapter ring doesn't match the crystal opening. We could be seeing the wrong dial, and possibly by extension, a different movt than that which was originally in the watch?
I've moved the emerald version back to Unknown also until we figure this out.
admin, you may want to consider changing this one to unknown. The shape of the stones are all wrong for a Miss Liberty. http://www.mybulova.com/watches/1929-miss-liberty-4726

Thanks Bob. Have done so.
Case shape of this ad appears to be more like my watch, but I can't tell if the stone pattern is the same. The name is unreadable but definitely not Miss Liberty. Looks like it starts with an H to me.
