I have the exact same watch, 15J 10AE round shield 1939, and have not been able to identify it yet.
This was one of the next up for the "What is it" posting as I have not found an ad for it so far and nothing else in the data base until now.
All suggestions would be welcone here as well.
similar to this 1940?

Here is mine , still unidentified . It is such a super looking watch that I am surprised it has not been identified or appear in any of the ads.
