Watch Description

Small 14kt Gold plate rolled watch, on an elastic band.  I did not try to open it to look at the mechanism as I'm new to this and didn't want to damage it.  If needed to help identify I will.  I don't have any history on it and only know what is visible in the photos.  Thanks for looking at it for me!

Thank you!  The band seems to be significantly different any idea why?

The watch has a bit of wear on it (I call it well loved). It's most likely the original broke and this is a replacement. There is also a slight chance that the original ownere had it changed at the point of purchase.

1940 Bulova Goddess of Time G

PS - the stylized woman at the top of the page was Bulova's interpretation of the "Goddess of Time". She appears to be 'flying?'
