1922 6722
1922 because:
- Case signed "American Standard" with shield symbol
- Movement signed "Bulova W. Co."
- Dial signed "Bulova"
- Movement has a caliber designation
- Will have a movement serial number
- No movement date code
- Case serial number begins with "11"
A very nice 6722. In the early days this shape that I call the "cut corner tonneau" shape was advertised as 18K solid gold or just as filled. The subject watch proves it also existed as 14K solid gold. Later the name of this shape changed to Ramona. By then it was advertised 14K solid gold and not 18K anymore.
We have ad advert showing the 14K solid gold version for $45.00.
I'm tentative 6722 for now as the 14K gold version may have been given its own number. Note the dial is the later style. I would tend to agree with 1922. Movement looks fairly early.
I guess I'm tentative on the 6722 ID as the gold content differs from the supporting advert. I do agree on the year, well done on your research Jaroslav, this is a wonderful little Bulova.
Great watch Jarolsav! I'm good w/ 1922 6722 for all the reasons cited above. Two ticks.
Is there a better description for this case shape besides OTHER? Corner Cut, perhaps? It’s not exactly a corner cut since the. Corners aren’t straight. Just trying to figure out the most suitable description.

The correct description would be Cut Corner Tourneau..

Corner Cut Tourney isn’t in the list. So would that put it in the OTHER category as it is now or Corner Cut as a close match?

Corner Cut Tourneau does not exist but is in the Art Deco book. Since it is a Corner cut I think that is the best classification. Same for Octagonal Round. This does not exist but Octagon makes the most sense.

By case s/n this one should be a 1921.

If you could provide a foundation, for this claim, that would be quite helpful.
