Watch Description

Beautiful ladies watch with original MAXIM bracelet & original Bulova box  The watch winds, sets & runs. The dial is actually in very good condition, just looks dirty because the crystal is scratched & discoloured & needs to replaced.

It is an unknown Bulova as far as I can tell as I can't find a matching ad.  There doesn't seem to be a matching watch in your 'unknown' database.

Dear Silvercloud, your watching called “Gilda”. It was introduced in 1929 and sold in both a blue version (yours) and a green version. Despite its beauty, it did not survive beyond 1929. Congrats with the nice find!

Good ID call Alex, Here is a low-res advert we have on site showing the Gilda and what looks to be a match for the subject watch.

Also a first 1929 version for the website.
