I am a little conflicted over the ID on this one. All of the other Clipper models have even numbers only where this one has all 12. The minute track looks correct and the seconds track as well. I just viewed a 1937 Commander with the white face and this now seems to be what this watch is only with a black face. http://www.mybulova.com/watches/1937-Commander-50 - Is it possible that this is a Clipper case with a commander face? Looking closer at the two cases there are more tiers on my case than the commander case.
At first I thought it was a commander because of the face then as I learned more on this site I started
looking closer at the cases. I was flipping back and forth then got a a closer look at the commander case. The dial and minute tracks seem to fit the case well and it looks sharp and the face is as found, the only things I had done on the watch were a good cleaning and the mainspring had to be replaced.
In reply to 'COMMANDER' Dial looks wider by FifthAvenueRes…
OK, across the face at the 9 and 3 the dial measures 18.02mm and top to bottom 26.21mm.
To the inside of the minute track at same locations 13.73mm by 22.41mm.
I rechecked the movement and it is the 17 jewel 10ae which is correct for the american clipper where the commander had the 15j movement.
