1956 Bulova Commodore.   It needs a new hour hand.  The one on it is an incorrect replacement.

The movement/dial get removed from the top. The bezel ring and crystal need to come off; and the stem is a two-piece type, so that also needs to be separated.

This is very helpful - thank you! It is a snap bezel or a screw? I don't want to be forcing it if it is a screw.

It is pressed on. You may find a notch in one place where the bezel meets the case; this is a point to work in something flat to pry it up.

1956 Bulova Commodore is a good match

Nice bracelet. Agree with a 1956 Bulova Commodore watch.

Would be interesting to one day find solid data about the serial number letter "B".
