I think it looks alot like this fatboy... though this one is a 21 jewel

From our 1949 Ad

From our 1950 ads...

  1950 HIS EXCELLENCY XX

As it's a drawing and not a picture... looks pretty similar... could be the artist didn't make it fat enough

This is why I prefer the 1920s watches, they are easier (usually) to identify because they were so different from one another.

Damn Bulova and their model variations!!!
