Lieutnant
In reply to from the previously linked by FifthAvenueRes…
Is it just me, or do these two pictures look like exactly the same watch? The minute hand is in a slightly different position, but note how the chapter ring seems to touch the upper right edge of the case, near the '1' in both pictures. Is that really a different band? Granted, it does appear slightly narrower on the right.
'BRUCE' "A" is Yellow.
'BRUCE' "B" is Red
'CADET' "C" is Yellow
'CADET' "B" is Red.
According to the descriptive text in both 1946 ads referenced in the thread.
The bracelets they were originally sold on are the only descerning factor.
'Matching expansion bracelet' vs 'Matching semi-expansion and tan Pigskin Leather band'.
Who is on first......
When I look at the detailed descriptions of the ad, I noticed one more little thing.
