Wow that is in beautiful shape!  I don't see any ad spicific to this watch either.  I'm good with Accutron Quartz ID for now.  If there was any evidence suggesting Bulova advertised these quartz by subsets "day and date" or "Calendar" as they do with Accutrons, I'd say we could consider adding that info to the generic ID.  At least that info is in the record, if not the ID title.

I think the "Dual day-date 'Set-O-Matic"' text in the linked ad is referring watch functions/features, not a model name.
