Watch Description

Another running ladies watch ready for a polish and to be worn again. This is a match to the other Shirley in the DB  -  https://www.mybulova.com/watches/5107  -  The lines on this one don't seem as crisp as the other one. Perhaps this one has a bit more wear on it.

Looks to be a good match to the Shirley.

Per the ad in the linked watch, Shirley came in yellow, white and pink so there are variants but I haven't found a breakdown for them and the ad shows a telescopic band.  Nice example.

I have a band for this watch but I didn't include it in the pictures because I didn't think it was original. Can you post a picture of the band?
