Not so much...
On the Left: My grandfathers 1940 Banker, 15 Jewel, 10AX.... dial was left to the elements without a crystal for decades probably...
On the Right: a 1941 Ranger, 15 Jewel, 10AX, I picked up on ebay for a song... dial has a big rust spot where one of the hands got rusty.
But if you look at the watches... pretty much spot on except the dial variation.
One of them is mis ID'd. The dial variation is most likely due to the different Years.
The tilt to the dial on the watch on the right and the fact that the Hour hand is reaching across the track makes it evident that someone has played with this one.
They're the same watch, one's a 1940 and one is a 1941.
My lightbox is in the works as We speak, made the shell Yesterday and picked up the Poster board today. How is it there's always glue in the House until You need some.....

Confuses. The watch on the left is a known original and according to the ads a 1940 Ranger. The watch on the right therefore has a 1940 Ranger case with what seem to be the dial and hands of 1942 Banker.
Am I seeing that right?
*The ad for the Ranger mentions the expansion band with a leather insert. Further confirming the known original as the Ranger model.
