Watch Description

I purchased this watch off ebay £50, listed as womens watch. It's a man's. Would like help identifying the name. It looks like a ambassador to me.

10BA 10k gold filled serial number 4511473 Date code X.  Glass lense. This watch for the age is in immaculate condition looks like its new.

Mick - the dial matches the advert, the year is determined by the movement date code and case serial number. Yours happens to bethe first we've had dated 1943

Panel how did we get 1943? Case serial number suggests 1944.
