Wow, it's the same case as the Cadet but a totally different dial. Advert is from 1946 and is spot on. Is it ROSE gold? I think it's Bruce. PS - I'd probably date it 1945

Thank you Kathy. I tried to put magazine photos from WWII in the background for this watch since it was Memorial Day and also the timeline for when this watch was made but I couldn't get that to work where the watch and the photos showed clearly.
