Watch Description

I submitted photo and info to admin Stephen. He said it was 1944 but to submit it here for more through ID. There may be a circle just under the word Swiss. I can't tell for sure. Not sure about the name of shape or where to find movement serial. The watch was my mothers and she died in 1979. I remember her having the watch repaired a couple of times in the 50's. Inside the case back teh letter "U" is missing from BULOVA. It also shows 10K Rolled Gold Plate, Sterling Base and New York. The crystal is scratched and I do not know if the watch even works. I intend to have a repair shop look at it and ask for an estimate. I'm not a collector of watches or antiques. On a whim I decided to look up the watch on internet and found this site and now my curiosity is peeked. I would like to gather as much info as possible about this watch as one day it will pass on to my son. Thanks. Feel free to contact me for any additional info.

Actually the dial opening is slightly different.  since we only have the one ad I wonder if they changed the opening of the Radcliffe at some point in the model year.

Yeah similar but different. I recall having the exact same reaction, One is cushion, the other tonneau.
