Here is a ladies Bulova from N0 so 1970, working but going fast, needs work. It looks genuine but still having doubts. In the caseback it says Bulova 9250 France. The france part makes me a bit suspicious but maybe there's no need. Very nice tiny watch with integrated band in good state 15,5 cm long and 15mm wide. Nothing on the crown.
Probably a Bulova, could have been made for the foreign market. We currently are lacking in ad's for the 70's on up, and by this time Bulova started using model numbers instead of names for many of their watches. The number in the center of the caseback is the model of the case, and it is possible that Bulova would have information on this watch.
An e-mail to their service dept. with all of the info you have on this watch might turn something up.
Germany for sure and I bet France were home to a couple Bulova watches. The Jump hour (1974 Model 11537-W) has a dial marked Germany, so a watch or two made in France - think Dior Collection - would not surprise. It's all Bulova Charles - IMO
Thanks both for your comments. Will drop an e-mail trying to get some clarety.
E-mailed Bulova service dept., they confirm its a Bulova. The case inprint 'France' was not odd, they
tell had a plant there. So thats cleared, didn't get a name.
