Here's a snippet of the 1930 ad for Crusador/Crusader linked above:
Changing the published date of production to 1931 based on case serial number starting with "1"
I may have sold this watch years ago, a while after posting this record. Sold or not, I should have some notes and more pictures of the watch still. I'll look for them and add what I still have.
In reply to I may have sold this watch by William Smith
I still have this watch, and updated some of the pictures today (Christmas).
"CRUSADOR"
Crusador- Will calls it "not a Templan" what ever that means.....
Agree with fifth's ID, as the subject does not have the bottom edge of the 6 showing as in the Crusador ad.
Crusader, not Crusador. There seems to be that difference, not much but enough.
Bulova weirdy again.
Another ad for the Crusader. 1932.
