A deco from 1930s ; 10AN 17 jewels breguet hairspring ; 14K White Gold filled
I have this case design listed as a Templan. Check 1928-29-30 ads to verify. Then change the name to Templan.
Thanks
Wayne
Not a 'TEMPLAN'.
'TEMPLAN' is 15 Jewels not 17, the Case Vertical details differ greatly, as do the Hands and the Dial.
Totally different case from the Templan. Subject has a convex (4 curved sides and length longer than width) crystal. Templan has tonneau shaped crystal.
Is that a double stamped date code on the movement? Omega over shield? Need a case serial # and pics to nail down the date.
Looks the same as these two. http://www.mybulova.com/watches/1931-unknown-4900 http://www.mybulova.com/watches/1931-unknown-2479
But with a correct minutes track.

One ad could help ID all three of these. Good job cross-referencing other similar watches.
Yes, Bob. My earliest catalog, post 1930, is a GS '37 (courtesy of John, JP) but it only list's the matching Y850 crystal as fitting a Bulova but no model specified. I've been on the hunt for earlier catalogs but no luck yet.
Wonder if this is a Bulova case? No notes to confirm in thread, and no picture to suggest (or suggest otherwise).
Advert found but no model name given.
1929 Bulova Traymore ?
I also recognise the band. I think I have one (thanks to a certain person who's initials are G.B)
agreed, 'TRAYMORE'
