1949 His Excellency with 3 diamonds - located at 12, 3, and 9 number positions. The case is etched (lack of the correct term) all the way around, including on the lugs.
INSIDE THE WATCH: 17 Jewels U.S. Bulova Watch Company 8AC (rectangular shape around these) A9
INSDE BACK COVER: Bulova Fifth Avenue New York
BACK OF WATCH 10K Filled Gold Plate Bulova A9 1598780 (under the case serial # is a TAB that allows the back to be removed with the use of a finger)
NOTE **I am very interested in what the experts/panel think. I narrowed the watch to the "his excellency" looking at pics under 1949 on this site, but none are as fancy as this watch. None have the 3 diamonds OR the fancy case design, including design on the lugs.
In reply to you watch is not His by jabs
