There are a number of these in the database like this one:

https://mybulova.com/watches/1928-unknown-11838

All are marked unknown.

Its a nice little watch.  Its cleaner than it looks because these iPhones are so good now that they pick up every little detail.  I don't care if it's a ladies watch. I've been wearing it.  😆

Yes it does seem to match the Unknowns.  Hopefully an ad will come along at some point.

Very similar, indeed....but if you look at the engraving spacing from the crystal there is a big difference. Debutante has the engraving hugging the crystal, while subject watch has a smooth strip in between that also causes a break in the pattern in the crystal corners..
