I beilieve that this watch could be a Dewey as seen in the 1947 adverts' #25 has the discription and #26 has the picture. I am looking at #54 in the advert. Case 35.40mm lug to lug x 23.60mm not counting the crown. I had the dial redone as exact by International.
Is it just the photo or is the watch yellow gold...looks very much like rose gold.
If yellow gold then I agree with the Dewey call.

Admin, I believe it is just the photo because the hands appear to be yellow gold.
I am in agreement with you, if it is yellow then it is a Dewey.
Dewey
hmmm also found this....Cambridge
ad dated 1948 in our 40s section.
'CAMBRIDGE'
Two ticks for either.
I'll have to vote Cambridge based on the later ad.
Here's the 1947 ad snippet for the Dewey. Click for full ad. Text is in adjacent ad, but only says "Dewey- Yellow, 17 jewels, $42.50
What if the subject case is from 1947 w/ a movement from 1949?
There's a good point.
Any date mark on the back apart from the serial numbers Dennis?
