Update : could be A DEWEY as it has a gold back....Lone Eagle states stainless back
Update Lone Eagle A as per discusion and crystal specs
After reading it all.....Mine is NOT engraved but DOES have a GOLD back....I think LE A with a gold back, very possible that gold backs were used earlier then phazed out as they were used up. More likely than any variation argument I suspect. And at that time, stainless was more valuable than gold (war efforts) and it would be logical to use rgp instead of stainless when supplies were short or too expensive.
Also have one with stainless back ...

Ok, all three measure 24.93 ishx29.27 ish case size and 23.89 ish x18.0 ish chrystal using mitutoyo self calibrating calipers, the case size does not match the Ambasador and the crystal specs match the GS MT 346-23 Lone Eagle crystal package posted here www.mybulova.com/watches/1942-unknown-2320 so as far as I am concerned the debate is over, Lone Eagle......unless that crystal fits something else...
Nope, if the Crystal were to fit another model it would be named on the package.
It's been My experience that most, if not all of the 30's models had Gold Casebacks, 1940 is when You start to see Stainless Steel backs being used on the 15 and 17 Jewel Models....for what it's worth.
