Watch Description

Posting on behalf of my mother in law - this is her late mother's watch and she is excited to learn more about it! Based on the L5 date code, she believes the watch may have been  purchased in Holland before her mother immigrated to Canada. 

Back reads "Bulova Quality L5" and "R792837". 

Thank you so much for your help!

I wish we had more to tell your mother-in-law about her watch but at the moment it is an Unknown without an ad.  This could be because it is an international model since she bought it in Holland.  Like this one https://mybulova.com/watches/1954-unknown-14448  Hopefully an ad will be found at some point in the future.

1955 Bulova Unknown (for now)

Unknown like Kathy said.  Still smarts a little for as many model names as we've found, still some allude us.

Whilst I'm not having any luck with a direct linebook entry, my gut is saying Lady Bulova "B".

Alas unknown for now.

I looked at this model for quite a while and still come up unknown.
