Check it out Plains, maybe you have something we have not seen yet?? What ever it is... it's NICE!
My feeling is it is an American clipper with the engraved case much like the engraved case you have that you were goinmg to send me instead of the plain one I got for my clipper and by the way I love it and it is still my favorite watch. It is possible for some one to have the upgraded jewel count movement with the right date code since I have a few myself. I looked for the one in my 41 ambassador for a while but did find one 21 jewels and all. IMO an American Clipper C tentative to finding an ad with the engraved case for a C model.
