Did Bulova date any of the Academy Award watches with an A9?
I have, over some time, acquired a few women's Academy Award watches including a "J", a "B" and two "F"'s.
Both "F"'s were purchased from different sellers. Both are white gold filled ("FF?") and have casebacks dated A9. Both have 21 jewel 6BC movements dated A9. However, the Roman numerals scribed into the case fronts do not match the last three numbers of either case back.
So, I have a conundrum about dating either watch. Can the A9 be correct for an AA?
Here is an example of a double 1949 dated men's Academy Award. They are out there, and as Stephen stated, they were likely early production for release in 1950.
