We are fairly certain at this point the Bulova W. Co signature on the Movement predates 1924 and I've recently viewed a very similar box which would also do the same, pre date '24.
The Hands on this rascal are also familiar, and early 1920's. They can be seen here http://www.mybulova.com/watches/1923-8-days-2440 on this Bulova 8 Day which We have pegged currently at 1923, the Date of manufacture of which may or may not be 100% correct, in hindsight 1924, maybe.
Add the attribute of a Movement without a Datecode to the puzzle of this 'HUDSON MAXIM' and 1923 possibly before becomes more probable. There is more than likely a clear indicator of Date of manufacture for these early Bulovas', to Date We have yet to realize it.
1923'ish
