I would say that the crown guard (not sure of the technical term) is not original to this time period and probably from a 1920s pocket watch.

Noting that, I agree that the pocket watch is a 1969 Bulova Buckingham "B".

I am also convinced that it is a Buckingham "B". I's my second Buckingham "B" in my Bulova collection.

Good match to the Buckingham 'B'

Bow may not be original.

I always call it the "bail" after the name of a bucket handle but yes, technically it is referred to as the "bow", 1969 Bulova Buckingham B
