check if it has a waterproof screw down crown and unscrew it to set the watch

best to go to a bulova dealer to get the original fitted as its most likely the stem is sheered of inside the old crown if however it has just unscrewed from the stem any good watchmaker should be able to refit it and reseal it

i cant get a manual for this but watches have standard mechanical function so maybe this will do.
the center crown of the watch right side of the picture, loosen the crown. Be careful, some crown have a screw function so if your bulova has this don't force to pull it to prevent damage. if you have loosen the crown, check if can be turn it, if yes pull gently the crown, first pull date adjust,second pull time adjust.
This is the proper way to adjust you day and time.
say you want to adjust your watch to (date)10th (time)10:15am
adjust your date to 9th, then move your watch hands clockwise until the date change at 12oclock this is the evening time (PM) continue moving your watch hands until you reach 10:15am.
if your crown is a screw time remember to turn it close tightly for waterproofing.

pull crown out once this allows you to set one of the functions by turning crown in one particular direction ..then pull out further to set next function by turning crown in one particular direction then push cronw all the way back to case side..if crown is of the screw down type you will have to unscrew it anti clockwise first then pull it out one click remember to screw it back when you finish

The video i want to see you,is using older kind of watch,screwing before he can pull the crown ,the new model watches now is pushing, while pushing you pull the crown .That's why ill tell in advance so you aware.I know because i'm a watch technician working in rolex before...
