Oh the entire front bezel is black. The new photos shows this much better.

Spot on a Buccaneer, I think the advert is full on Bulova but doesn't show the dial design.  I REALLY like this watch -  1975 Bulova Buccaneer

It should be noted these PVD coated watches by Bulova and Caravelle were the first production watches to be PVD coated.   See the video I did on my 1974 Caravelle. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7mUsRyzDttg

Here is a magazine ad from 1975/76 of the sister watch.

This one is more golden color. Mine is so lightly yellow that is nearly looks silver. Not sure if that's fade or by design. But when you put it next to something silver/stainless it definitely stands out yellow.
