Adding further to this the following observations:
The two watches entered by Geoff (White and Yellow set), has a sub-second design the same as the Lone Eagle adverts.
The other two examples we have show the Bernard sub-second design.
The notion that we have no 1933 adverts or watch examples of the known LE's is correct.
So maybe just maybe what we are seeing here is as Bobbee originally theorized, and that is the initial release of a new LE model around September 1933, then the timely withdrawal by Bulova due to the kidnapping event, and then the subsequent rebadged release of the watch as the Bernard.
