Thank you for posting your watch.  This is a classic 1952 Director.   I suspect this was an A Variant that had the dial glazed or refinished.  I do not not believe this would have come from Bulova with this color.    1952 Bulova Director.   Note the case is for a ladies Dew Drop watch from the period or later.

I agree with Jim.
