I really know 0 about watches. The story behind this particular watch is that it belonged to my great grandfather whom had my great grandmothers initials engraved on the backside of the case. The watch has been in my family since the original purchase. I tried to take photos of it as best as possible, I'm no watch photographer that is for certain. The inside case number took a good amount of positioning to actually read them. The inside 'glass?' cover has is tinged yellow but intact. The case has a decent about of surface scrapes, I assume the could easily be buffed out once it's all cleaned. I have no idea how the watch itself works so I don't know if the thing actually works or not. Sorry if this is vague or not normal format.
Tony - there is some speculation as to the validity of the ad we used to ID this watch in that we only found one example of the ad. We have overwhelming evidence on some watch ID's and very scant evidence on others, so for some models we really have little to use to establish ID. We do the best we can, sometime not reaching 100% agreement on the ID but always agreeing that we're passionate about Bulovas!
