This is a Sea King I purchased at an estate sale. It in rough shape and did not run. I have restored it to good physical and operating condition. The watch is 10k rolled gold and was purchased having a Kreisler 1/20 10k gold oyster band. The movements is a 11BLACD. The catalog shows the 2523 case as having an 11 ALACD so I am not sure if the movement is original or if the “B” is just a destination for the gold color of the movement.
Nice watch, thanks for sharing. Based on 1969 Bulova Line Book BAWDO170

We do see that occasionally, as well as differences in dial text. It could be as simple as white dial vs. black dial, as we only have a Bulova factory pic of the white dial variant..
