The history that I know of is that it came from a business that closed in the 1990's when the owner retired. I have attached my photos. For some unknown reason to me at least, the front picture is sideways and I can not turn it?
Thank you.
Hi RJR and welcome to mybulova. I added 2 of your photos from your initial forum question to assist others in identification. Your watch is a beauty and appears by s/n and movement date code to be a 1928 Conqueror,
Here is an ad from 1928
Yours has a face configuration I haven't seen before. Most have a radium dial with skeleton radium hands. Yours has what we refer to as a "dress dial" with raised numerals.. Many models offered a dress dial but they seem to have been less advertised. It is a fine example of the time period, congrats!

$28.50 in 1928 is equivalent in purchasing power to about $430.00 in 2020.
