Watch Description

Here's another late 1920s gem!  I believe the case back stamp and number: 8558259 indicate 1928.  The movement is stamped 1926 "triangle" with the serial number is hard to see, although I believe it's 89766.

The dial on this one looks a lot like the Clare I submitted earlier, although it is significantly longer at 32.9mm (including lugs) and 17.2mm in width.

I came up empty, finding a reference to this type of case.  However, the engraving is only on the sides.  Your help identifying this watch is appreciated!

another reason I believe this case will not be a 'DEBUTANTE' is by what We see in the Gent's line of this era.

 

'AMBASSADOR' - 'SENATOR' 

'SPARTAN' - 'CONQUEROR' 

'BANKER' - 'TREASURER' 

Possibly others, are non-engraved cases vs their engraved counterparts.
