Watch Description

1936 Bulova "Treasurer" 17J 6AE movement with a square for a date stamp, Satin White dial with raised gold hash mark markers, Black tracks and Gold hands, 10K Gold Filled bezel and case back, unmarked 3 piece expansion band stamped 14K Gold Filled tops. This watch winds sets and runs good, the only drawback is the dial is showing age, and I haven't practiced Timemachine Mike's Tarnex tip on dial cleaning enough yet to pull the dial and try it on this one.

OT - Subject watch is the non-engraved Treasurer?  Red 1937 ad (above)  and B&W 1936 Treasurer ad both show engraved bezel. 

I voted three ticks some time ago, and now don't remember the details of smooth vs engraved bezel.  Still three ticks from me-

Aside: The 1936 ad also shows dial variant w/ Arabic numerals vs hash marks. 

EDIT  I now see another 1936 ad showing unengraved Treasurer.

If I'm allowed to have an opinion based on the evidence it's 3 ticks from me also.

Thanks gang.  I've got an engraved 37 case w/ 36 mvnt, but w/ whacky case dimensions on mine.  I'll post it in watch DB later today.  Glad to see several records have case dimensions listed for these watches.
