Thanks so much for posting this picture! (albeit I am thanking you 8 years after the fact.) I have had the 1952 Calendar watch in my collection for nearly 30 years. I believe I am the 2nd owner. My watch is Minty. Need to submit it to MyBulova.com

Here is yet another rectangular Beau Brummel (yawn).

November 1957 ad.

bobbee
Posted February 12, 2013 - 12:25pm

Attached to the top Sutton ad above was a watch called the Gedney, but is known on this site as the

AMBASSADOR/EVERETT!

After more searching, I came across several more naming it the Gedney, in four seperate States in the US.

Maryland advert.

   

     Oklahoma advert.

 

      Pennsylvania advert.

 

 

    So, along with the Texas advert that has been snipped, but I still have the original pdf file for, that is four ads in four states, with a couple more in the same states.

        What is going to happen now? We have THREE different ID's for this watch!

 

  Just to make it interesting, I found this 1959 ad too.
