This is my 3rd Rocket but I couldn't resist this one because it had the original band. I was pleased when I got this watch and it fits me like I special ordered it to size. Obvious by the band size that this was a women's watch. I know we had this discussion on other threads. So it is my opinion that this was probably a ladies sports watch and maybe a boys/girls/teen watch as well. The first ad says ladies watch.
It is in pretty nice shape with a 14k rose gold filled case with a 17 jewel movement. Both the case and the movement are 1943. It was hard to get a good overall pic of this one so I ended up having to hold it to get the right angle for the dial and color.

I have no dispute that this size is the ladies Rocket I believe the question is are the larger versions a man's version of the Rocket.

I think a larger version of this style could pull off being a man's for sure, hopefully one will come up at some point.
It does look like it should be for a lady; very nice looking example...Rocket
