Watch Description

 This one is somewhat small in size for the 60's at 28mm x 28mm not including the crown or lugs.  Beautiful  yellow machined finish.  Silver dial with black and gold linear indices and date window at 3 o'clock.  Case date is M6 but movement is an M7.   In very nice condition and runs well.  If memory serves this may have been advertised as a ladies watch when I bought it.  Given the small size of the band on it I bet a lady was wearing it.  It's a nice looking band but I can barely expand it enough to get it over my hand and still fits tightly on my small wrist.   

I attached an add below for a date king AQ variant which i think matches this.  Thanks as always, and still enjoying the site very much!

I am glad you are enjoying the site.   You watch is dated 1966 based the M6 date code of the case.  Based on the 1967 Linebook your watch is a 1966 Bulova Date King "AQ".  A bonus is the bracelet looks to be the original one.  Too bad it is too small for you. I updated the movement model to 11ALD.

Thank for the comments.  It is a great looking watch.    Probably as nice and clean as any I’ve ever purchased.
