Looking at the ads we have available today, this matches the 1940 ad for the Ranger but not the 1941. Could this be a ‘40 with a movement swap?

I’m confused about the 1941 Ranger ads. I did find this model in an ad identified as a 1941 as but there is another 1941 ad showing the ranger as a yellow gold version of that 1941 Lieutenant which is significantly different. I’m guessing 1941 was a transitional year between the two styles for the Ranger name.
