What do we have here?

 Well jerin you've taught me something new today. I have had so many of the "crocket" and always thought they were Clipper models.  Great stuff. I agree with your diagnosis....

I hate to say this, but that 'Clipper' doesn't look right to me.  The steps are too smothed down, the lugs are too long.  Compare to mine

But the right-hand case looks like the engraved Clipper case (Clipper B?) to me.

Also, the pics of the Crockett show the engraving ending where the crystal ends, not extending down the lugs.

What if the two movements/dials were switched?  The dial on the left is not really a great fit to the case - the minute track gaps at the midpoint, and at the ends.

ruh roh

Not a 'CLIPPER', the case is incorrect as stated above.

I'd argue that the one on the right is a Clipper case, though.  And the one on the left is a Clipper dial.  The one on the right looks like a Ben Hur dial.

 Hut Dang people its another can of worms.  Doug is right about the engraving and clipper C, perhaps Iwas right at first.......and yes the lugs on the first watch look way to long compared to a clipper.  

The Case of the Watch on the left is not even close to being that of a 'CLIPPER'.

Engraved watch on right American Clipper "F"

Watch on left ???

 except for the dial yes, which should be pointed. mash up of watches maybe?

Has anyone ever seen the black Clipper C dial with the engraved Clipper F case?

Hey Jerin,

Sorry I missed all the fun! I was going to say check for a re-case. I have however seen the black dial in a American Clipper "C" though I don't re-call the date on the AD, 1939....I think. The C is not engraved on the bezel and neither is the B with the white dial.

The White Dial is incorrect for a 'CLIPPER' - as just about everyone has mentioned.

The Black Dial is more consistant with a 'CLIPPER' but belongs in the Watch Case on the right as the Case on the left  is not a 'CLIPPER'.

                          Left                                                                                                               Right

The engraving pattern of the Watch bezel on the right is 'CLIPPER' and the smooth arc to the Seconds track on the Dial does not match the angular lines of the Case.

Shooter,

My bad, I meant to say Minutes track, sorry for the confusion.

Note how it dips under the Bezel at 2, 4, 8 and 10.

The Case is from a 'CLIPPER', the Dial is not.

'CROCKETT' above:

At no time does the Minutes track approach the bezel edge, this space is even all the way around.

As GJ mentioned earlier it may be the current owner mis-matched the bezels, I would try swapping the Black Dialed movement on the left into the Case Bezel on the right.

Class dismissed.

Brilliant deduction Einstein!  or did the kids help with that one?

Show Me a Watch on which the Minutes track does not follow the Case bezel lines and I'll show You a Watch with the wrong Dial.

The White Dial does appear to be 'BEN HUR' or 'CROCKETT' style admin, but the Case bezel is 'AMERICAN CLIPPER'.

Note the smooth arch to the Bezels' verticle edges and slight lug variation shown on the 2 examples of the 'BEN HUR' above in comparison to the distict 'V' shape of the 'AMERICAN CLIPPER' below.

* I still strongly suggest the Bezel of the Watch on the Right in the original post belongs with the Dial on the Left.

Hey Plains,

Did you try swapping the movements, maybe the seller got confused and put them together wrong...Black dial engraved Clipper "D"?!!  ; O

Well, heck - i told you to switch them back on the 1st of August!  What am I, chopped liver? ;-)
