The more I look at the face I see that the red color on the indices appears uneven, which like the missing text and missing minute track would seem to also indicate a radical cleaning.
After going through many line books, I can't find a match to either the case or this face with date window, displaying tuning fork below the 12. Pre-1970, it appears that the only watches with the tuning fork logo placed below the 12 were date window Accutrons. They had "Accutron" placed on the "9" side of the dial opposite the date window. I find nothing mechanical with a tuning fork logo on face.
I'm at a loss.
I'm leaning towards calling this non-conforming. That's not a bad thing for an heirloom watch due to the link to the family. I wish it could talk.
