Trying to identify this watch that was my mother-in-laws. Not sure if it's 1936 or 1946. From what little research I've done, it looks like the Shirley watch. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
In reply to Shirley appearance here, but by jabs
That's what has me confused.
Runs and keeps time.
year of manufacture will be 1946
Hello camsgram, welcome to myBulova. I'm kind of at a loss to ID this watch. As far as I can tell, it's identical to Shirley, other than the gold content listed on the case back. Jaroslav is correct that the Shirley wasn't advertised in solid gold
Right now, I'm at 1946 Unknown for the ID
Agreed that everyting points to a Bulova 'Shirley', but no mention of a 14K version, so I'm also with Unknown, until such time we can confirm the model came with a solid gold variant.
Agree with above observations. Unknown at this time.
