We base model year on the case serial number and beginning with a 1 this would be a 1941 Bulova Spencer.   I am into sure it the dial is repainted or not but it still aligns with a Spencer.

1941 Bulova Spencer, like Jerin's . I also agree that the dial has been repainted, noting the telltale notch.
