Sold at eBay Auction US$118. 19 Dec 2007.
Finally ID'd after 3 years of looking.
I'm re-listing this as an 'Unknown'. I must admit that when I originally ID's it I must have only have a low-res image. It certainly isn't the Minute Man I thought it was.
Any ideas?

Too bad you don't have the crystal specs.!? It's most likely the 1940/41 "Bruce?" But without an old crystal and/or bezel... (or any crystal sales) I can't rationalize being of much more help here...

In reply to Wink :-) Too bad you don't by WatchCrystals.net
Officer. <- Disregaurd, there's a slight difference. My bad : )
I think there's a chance this is the Dean?
Below are ads from 1939-1940
and 1941-42

Ok maybe this is it.....1941 Charles.

What do you reckon gents? (7 is different, but....)
YUP... Already said it was, several months ago!? LOL...

I would give the watch the benefit of the doubt over the ad. I like it for a Charles!

Scott,
According to my data the Bruce crystal is
GS BB Perfit
CMW 500 CMW 2425 (190) HMB 242/3 (190)
and the Charles Crystal is
GS BB Perfit
CMW 700 CMW 2527 (207) HMB 253/2 (208)
Hope this Helps!!

The "7" on the Charles dial is different from the ad.
