Watch Description

1974 Bulova Watch. The case back says its gold although not sure how what percentage of the watch they are meaning. The case back also says Electroplate Bezel stainless steel back N4. The serial number on the bottom of the case back says J00793. 

Just recently has this passed down and have very little knowledge about watches so any helpful info would be greatly appreciated 

Thanks!

The front case (or bezel) will be Gold Electroplate (ie gold plated I believe), with the back being stainless steel.

Here is the watch from the 1974-75 Linebook, listed as a Womens Accutron.

and another from 1974 describing it as a 'tank' style.

Welcome to mybulova. Nice to see it on the original band as shown in the Bulova literature. I don't find another like it in the database, I think yours is a first. Congrats! It's entirely possible she never had a name, only a stock number.

1974 Accutron for now.

Heirloom watches are the best!

Nice one

1974 Bulova Accutron (would we tag it as "Mini" inasmuch as it's a ladies model?)

Welcome to myBulova and thank you for sharing your heirloom watch with us.  Very nice that it still has the original band.
