Nice dial, should have a bow at the crown, as these were converted chatelaine or lapel watches.
Many new non-Bulova ads show these were used in the US as early as the 1880's as bracelet watches, by adding a dummy crown and bow opposite the real one, and adding a bracelet or chain.
The subject could be a Lady Maxim.

Ads at bottom of page show that the numbered models are LM's, as long suspected.
