Will - A "Captain" model (1948) just came to live at my house a couple weeks ago, so I'm pretty sure it isn't a Cap'n. Still not liking this as a Princeton though - same as Wayne's - just can't agree without some shred of proof. Sorry.
At least we now know that the case is Bulova, and it is kinda rare, because we see very few pop up on the bay...I have to agree with Fifth & Geoff...until we find something that supports this as a "Princeton", 1 Star at best.
I can also confirm that this is a genuine Bulova model, because I have one too. Never bothered to post it, because there was already one in the database, and the ID didn't look to be supported.
Like William's, mine is running a 10AX, 21J, with a 1943 date code. Case serial number 3649510. It is pink gold, 14k filled, with a matching dial. Case is Bulova signed, inside and out.
I too don't see any reason to call this a Princeton.
I didn't list as unkonwn because we have a one star ID for same watch at:

...although I was hoping for a name like Captian or something nautical since it kinda looks like a ship's wheel to me.
