Thanks Nola.

My '52 BB crystal catalog has the Andrew taking the MX2189 crystal which is listed as 21.8x19.0. I would say that based on the crystal specs that this is the same case as the Andrew but engraved.

Without an ad though, I have to go with Unknown.

December 1950 ad from the Canandaigua Daily Messenger.

Agree - Carlyle, I'm a bit surprised that this is the only example we have of this watch. I assumed there would be more but I didn't find any.

Nice work Emperor Bob. Hey, wait a minute, we've already ID'd one as an Emperor, you'll need a new 'handle' there good buddy.

Finally...I have one too, and can enter it now that it has a name....(I was being lazy)
Carlyle from me.  Good match Bobbee
