I need help identifying the model and year. I believe this is a Bulova La Petite but am not 100% certain. The closest I could find was the 1972 model. The serial number on the back is S34263 and I can't find that number anywhere on the web. The back plate says 10kt Rolled Gold Plate Bulova and there is some sort of character after Bulova. The watch winds with the motion of your hand - no battery or hand winding necessary. This was my mother's watch and she wore it for as long as I can remember - at least the 1970s but she may have had it longer.
The model is likely the La Petite "MC"
The date is mid-70s; on the back is a date code that I cannot quite determine, is it N5 (1975) or N6 (1976)?
Thank you. I can't tell either. I can see the serial number clearly (S34263). Wait! Are you saying the characters AFTER "Bulova" is the date code??? I put it under a microscope and confirmed it is N6. It's definitely white and not yellow so now we finally know. 1976 Bulova La Petite MC. Thank you so much!
1976 Bulova La Petite "MC" is a great match. Pretty watch.
