Guys, take a lookon the link above at Waynes 1939 Ambassador C and one I had....on first glance they look the same but then look closer and you'll see the lugs are different, the curve/"fatness" are different. one has a 7AP 21j the other has a 10 calibre 21j?  

Is one not an Ambassador?

Having had an ambassador A which has the same case as Waynes  I was ready to say that Mine wasn't  and ambassador C now,  but then then the advert shows more similar traits to mine than Waynes.

Take a look and throw in your 2 pennies worth....is that another can of worms I can here being opened from the ghost of Bulova past!

One is not an 'AMBASSADOR' one is the Bulova 'OXFORD'.

There is a Second similarly Cased model to the 'OXFORD' the 'MONTGOMERY' shown lower left in the 1939 ad below.

'AMBASSADORS' are 21 Jeweled.
