Hi, there- I’m a first-timer, here, so any help you can provide would be GREAT! I’ve spent a couple hours researching this watch on my Bulova.com, but as there are no similar models, I’m guessing Debutante? Thoughts??
Thank you!
Hello Sharon, welcome to myBulova. This is a wonderful watch. I think your ID is spot on, I agree that it's a Debutante. Thanks for sharing it.

1927 Bulova Debutante
Case number starts with a '6' for 1926. 6AF movement may or may not be original.
Dating to 1926 Bulova Debutante, unless there are objections.
The case serial is incomplete. It should be 7 digits. Given the location of the 6 visible digits, the first is missing. Digit 2 and 3 are a 6 and 8. The only possibility therefore is that the first digit is a 7 (568, 668, 868 and 968 didn't exist). The last picture above indeed shows a hint of a 7. 7684530 places it in 1927, in line with the movement date code.
Doing a review of serial number and agree with Alex that the first number is missing. I can also see a hint of a 7, so will update the record.
