Watch Description

Case is marked Bulova Quality with the June 10, 1924 patent date.  Movement is a 15 J 6AF from 1929 (shield mark).

It's a pretty model.  Apparently Mary Stackhouse had good taste. :)

I've been through the ads and it's an unknown for me.  Very similar to this one but the design on the bevel is different, I think.

Dear Tsanno, indeed this model is an Unknown. It is part of what I call the Misses family, since the set up is the same as the Miss Liberty and Miss America having 4 to 6 sapphires and emeralds without diamonds. In total 8 examples of this family have been found of these, the subject being one of them.

Unkown for now.   I am going to do a hard search on this model over the holidays.  There has to be some evidence to these out there!    Challenge accepted.
