B and V observations of the suspected variable BV 690 = NSV 04298 are reported. The star shows light variations with a period of 1.2400 d and with amplitudes of 0.27, 0.36, and 0.11 m in V, B, and B-V respectively. The light curves show steeper rise than decline, and there is evidence for the presence of a bump in the descending branch around the phase of 0.35. From considerations of the period, spectral type, presence of the bump, and high tangential velocity is concluded that BV 690 belongs to the BL Herculis class of type II Cepheids.
