Hello, This is one of my favorite models so I couldn't resist picking up this one with the original band.
It has a 10K rolled gold plate case, marked Bulova Fifth Ave New York inside, 6AH 17 jewel working movement.

Miss Air Warden - 1943
Date code on movement is an "x" for 1943, serial number appears to start with a letter "O", second number being a "3". I would be inclined to label this one a 1943.

I believe your assumption as well. My grandfather could not go to war due to being deaf in one ear. He was a volunteer like that. I wasn't aware so many women were involved.
Just to clarify the date on the case is 1944 with the serial # starting with a D. I know it looks like an O in the pic but it is a D when you look close.
