Work in progress.
This watch and the band are 100% original.
I bought this watch from the original owner, who received it as a High School Graduation Gift in 1970, wore it for 10 years, and it has been stored ever since.
There are a couple of little scratches on one of the little watch band end pieces where it connects to the watch case.
all 3 working,westclox and Bulova 1960 President look mint. Ladies watch is Lugano enamelled with cover.
the watch is dated 1946 , with a 10BCC movement which has only been listed in the Surgeon. Not in the ads , not sure whether it is a military watch or a medical watch. The rear case was no markings on it other than Bulova and a number . It is 25mm across minus the crown.

Just a guess for this watch that my wife recently inherited from a grandmother. After looking at the collected advertisements, I believe it is a "Her excellency" based on cushion shape, perhaps "T", "U" or something else. Not sure about year. Distinguishing features are the two diamonds and 14K white gold case. Speidel wristband appears not to be original. Had it cleaned at a watchstore. Crown and dial are original.
Thanks for any expertise shared. I am a watch novice.
Watch came in a Dolly Madison cardboard box - as well as the blue & white display box with tag....
However, the markings on the inside don't match a Dolly Madison....not to mention the face of the watch is oval, and the case is square....
And the markings on the back of the case don't either.
Strange anomolies with this watch I've obtained.
Inner workings marked; "5AD, 23 Jewels"etc. with oval face (see pics)...square case marked; M3, Y64502....and band possibly not original to the case - with "S" marked on a couple links. Also, box it came in (at an estate sale) was for a 21 Jewel Dolly Madison.
Just looking for more info on any of these (or all) parts.
Thanks for your help!
