It's either a Craftsman or a Tuxedo, though I don't have the original band. I went with Tuxedo because of the contrasting color of the sub-seconds area. Overall Length: 38mm Width: 21mm 14KWG

Note that the ads don't list a Craftsman "C", rather only a Tuxedo "C", which is the white gold version. Only the Tuxedo is shown in white gold in any ad. I think it's telling that we have an ad that lists the various versions of both the Craftsman and the Tuxedo, and in that list is not a white gold Craftsman.

I think I remember reading another thread with the same arguement of what differentiates a Tuxedo from a Craftsman. I only sugested a Craftsman "C" if the criteria was going to be that it does not have the original solid gold bracelet. I really don't think it can be called a Craftsman though because according to the 1946 ad there was no such animal offered in white gold.
Hypothetical: If a watch named "Prince" was only ever offered with a metal bracelet and that bracelet becomes lost does the "Prince" now become "The Watch Formerly Known As"?

After looking at all the ads and considering the matter, I still believe that you have a Tuxedo, albeit missing its matching, solid gold band. The color combination that you have is only seen and described in association with the Tuxedo. The leather band on yours is not the one shown in the Craftsman ad, and is most likely a later replacement. Probably, someone along the way melted down the gold band and substituted the leather.
That's just my opinion. Others may differ.
