Have struggled to find a model match. I'm unsure the year is correct and it could be from any year from the 60s and 70s.

If you are able to open the case and take a photo of the movement, that might help narrow down the year.

Thinking the watch is part of the La Petite series, but nothing to confirm as yet.

1961 Bulova diamond watch

I worked up the courage to open the back. It's stamped M1, so 1961 and 5 AD is the movement. Maybe this will help identify her model name./p>

So reviewing a 1961 linebook I've been able to identify the watch as part of the Diamond Bouquets series.

The same linebook listed "Diamond Classics" and "Diamond Creations".

Panel thoughts on adding these 3 names to the site model llist?

I think Diamond Bouquet is a good match Stephen - I would vote to add the name. Very nice Lee!
