NOTES:  The Lady Bulova was offered in an engraved and unengraved case and with and without diamonds.  The ad below describes four diamonds, rather than two.  There is another advertisement that appears to show and describe a two diamond version, but when cropped and enlarged, both the image and text are too blurry to be useful.  The watch came in a 1930's style box with "Lady Bulova" printed on the inside, though there is no way to be certain that the box was original to the watch.  Certainly, the case shape and overall design, as well as the bracelet, are a match for the Lady Bulova shown in the ad below, so I am comforable with this ID.
