My guess is that FHF stopped production of the 8044, or it became unavailable to Bulova for any number of reasons. Bulova did not develop this calibre, which they called the 13AF and 13AE.  Like the FHF calibre 29, they seem to have disappeared as the 30's wore on, or perhaps they were used only on certain other watch brands? regardless, Bulova seems to have gone to the round movts, necessitating the stepped cases, as you say. There's a story here, I wonder if we will ever know.
