No, Never seen this watch but my guess is that it's a ladies selfwinder.

The crystal is 24 by 20. I think it may be the Ambassador G?

Tentative Ambassador 'G' certainly works for me. Good advert find Rev.

That is definitely a keeper!

You don't find very many 50+ year old watches with that clean of a dial!

Ambassador "G"
