This appears to be the first model of the Dexter in the database. It is a 10KT Yellow Rolled Gold plate hinged case with a 10AB 7-jewel movement with a triangle date code. The balance pivot is broken. I cannot find a interchangeable match to the 10AB movement in the catalogs. If anyone knows what balance might work I would appreciate it.
I don't find any other matches to this case in either white or yellow. Possibility of variants of the watch based on color. Watch is a match to the ad concerning face, hands, case shape and likely jewel count (not called out in Dexter ad, so in all probabability less than 15). "Bargain Price" also seems to indicate lower jewel count than standard Bully of the time. I will go tentative
1935 Dexter
Nice find!
