Case is a match, dial font slightly different, but Boone is a distinct possiblility; case is pretty unique. Subject watch is a 1941, what is ad date?

1939 to 1941 is pretty close and with none in the database for comparison, it's a tough call. Only one ad makes it tough as well. That said, if there are no other examples of this case called anything else but "Boone", that is probably what it is. Face font in ad may be period  incorrect. We have seen that before.
