Shield on movement that lacks a s/n; and outside 7 digit s/n starting with a "9" indicates the watch is a 1939.

Like this one; previously identified as

1939 Geraldine

Agree on Geraldine.  As Neetstuf-4-u said the first digit of the serial number indicates the year in the 30's.  The movement codes can be the same for the 20's/30's/40's so we have to go by the style of the watch to send us in the correct direction to find a model in the right decade.

1939 Bulova Geraldine is a good match,  Here is an original ad from 1939 showing the watch.
