Uh, maybe not. I think even Mark is saying it should be an Unknown in the db?

Found a matching watch in the 1969 Line Book BAWD0172 Page 20 of 77.  It is a three year spread and I tried to find it in earlier line books but could not find a match.   I am inclined to think this is a:

1966 Bulova Sea King "EY"

Based on this linebook entry, it looks like in 1966, this watch was

Sea Clipper "AB" and by 1969 renamed as Sea King and mounted on a different band.

Another point to note, is the Sea King is stamped and referenced as 'Automatic', were as the Sea Clipper is 'Selfwinding'.
