Watch Description

Greetings everyone! 

I am just getting into vintage watches and my first score was this little gem. It appears to be solid 14k gold (maybe rose?). It does work but the movement needs to be cleaned and oiled as it periodically stops. I am hoping to get it serviced and give it to my wife for our anniversary. I've been digging around in the old Bulova ads and dating sources but haven't been able to pinpoint this one so I am turning to the pros. If you need any other photos or have any questions I will be happy to provide whatever I can. Thanks in advance for your time, help and knowledge!
