Watch Description
This is a 1948 Bulova. It's 14k rose RGP bezel with a stainless steel back.
I'm guessing it's a 1948 American Clipper because of the recess in the dial for the sub-second hand, but I would like an expert to confirm it.
Other than that it looks like a Franklin to me.

Agreed with the Franklin ID. My call on the hands would that they should be silver like the hour markers, maybe index but Bulova was using Moderan, and Dauphine hands more towards the 50's so I'd have to agree with Bobbee on that note. If you can't find silver, then I'd go with the bluesteel hands.
