Watch Description

 The movement is a 17 Jewel, Bulova, date code N7. It is in a 14k gold filled, 25 year case from the Crescent Watch Case Company (CWC). Case is 36 mm in diameter. The dial has automatic on it as well as what looks like possibly Bulova worn off under the 12 . The CWC case has the trade mark that was issued in 1905. 

Is this even considered a Bulova or is it a watch that was repaired by dropping a L7 Bulova movement into it.

I read L7 for the date code, but typed N7 in the text above....

Thank you for posting your watch.  This looks to me like a Bulova movement that has been placed in the watch case.   The movement is missing the second hand module which would have been on top of the movement.  In this case we would designate this as non-confirming.

Non Conforming at best.
