I did two edits: changed “sapphires” to “emeralds” in the main text and serial number from 989 to 909. 989 did not exist and the second digit is a 0.

Everything looks in place for an all origional Bulova, just not finding any hits here or in my normal external archive newspaper searches.

Alas yet another unkown.   Great looking watch wihether sapphires or emeralds.  It does seem that models during this time had the two options.
