1946 Navigator like this one

I can't answer the question regarding the "18" on the movement.

1946 Bulova Navigator is a match based on this 1944 ad.   I also cannot explain the 18 on the movement.  Nice watch and keep them coming.

Good ID. The navigator advert is a nice match for the subject watch, noting the engraved sides on the bezel.
