Really unique watch... I purchased it from a seller in Albania.  I've never seen a other like it. Set-O-Matic right on the dial.

I don't think so dude... In the other link in this thread there is a similar watch with the same cors.  I do not think both faded to be almost a uniform green color.

Thinking we ID as President with 'Set-O-Matic' as the variant.

I agree with President

Set-O-Matic would be a feature or function and not a variant, IMO

I think we should leave the "Set-O-Matic" off as the variant and just go with 1973 Bulova President.

We might want to review the other watches tagged a Set-O-Matic to see if they'll accept the President ID as well.

Ken and Geoff, that works for me.

I disagree I think.... The ad says pretty clearly Bulova President Set-O-Matic.

Not as a descriptor... But as a title imho.

Call me 'flipper'.Plainsmen makes a good point. The advert clearly says Bulova President "Set-O-Matic".

It may not be a variant, but in fact an actual true model name: President 'Set-O-Matic"

I agree. President "Set-O-Matic"

Something labeled like this is a title for sure, just like the Goddess of Time next to it:
