Really cool automatic.  Case says N3=1973, but the movement is N4=1974.  Which do we think?

Very 70's! I would be inclined to follow the date by case rule when the dates are off by a year.

Sorry I forgot to add, that I did not find this in the 1973 linebooks, but in a 1974 linebook.

Further to this, the watch is listed under the Bulova "Brigadier" Collection in the 1975 Linebook, but is still not assigned a model name, so number it is.
