I am not so sure this is the Senator you show.  This definitely looks to be a different case than the one in the ad,  I could not find a match but will keep on looking.

It's close. I've seen this case model number 31725 go by a few different names between 53 and 55 (Rubyiat, Senator then Rocket), all at different price points.

We have four other examples of this model, all listed as unknown:

Here is an example of the real 1952 Bulova Senator as shown in the above advert. Note the lugs.
