Watch Description

Since my last post was successfully identified, I wanted to post my great-grandfather’s 1956 Bulova L6 A935941. It is manual wind and is 10k gold plated. I have gone through some adverts from that year and the closest match i’ve found is the Bulova Sherwood. I have found other results on google of this exact watch but nothing so far explaining what it is. I am hoping to find out more about it since I have so gratefully inherited it and I would love to know the history behind it. Thank you !

Very nice family watch, which I believe is the President 'G' with original band.

I also believe that this model line debuted in 1956, designed to be a thin watch with a lot of style.
