Welcome to myBulova and thank you for sharing your mother's watch with us.  It is beautiful.  Based on the dial and serial number I agree with your date of 1959.  However, I haven't been able to find this exact model yet.  Still looking.

This is amazing! Thank you sooo much for the information. It's so much more than I knew before. Thank you for taking the time to look it up. It's a bonus, too, knowing it hasn't appeared in your database before.

You are most welcome! As a side note, this watch cost $250 new in 1959. Based on inflation and buying power, $250 in 1959 is the equivalent of $2,562.94 today. This was quite a purchase when new.

As we noted they were extremely expensive in their day and as such not many were made.  Always great to see a new one in the metal.   Thank you for posting.

I've held onto this watch for quite some time and think I will finally try to sell. Any pointers or references would be appreciated.
