Watch Description

 15j Superb design. Previously  ID'd as a Chadwick by another user below. But i think this now to be the NUGENT (as also mentioned) and as newly added advert shows below. Agree or not?

GJ,

In respose to Your query update about this model:

The ad shows an identical Watch. 

I agree with this model being called a 'NUGENT' being there is visible and written confirmation.

I don't think this watch is the one depicted in the ad.

The subject watch is only slightly longer as it is wide, not counting the lugs. The ad watch is almost twice as long as it is wide. The add itself say's the "Nugent" is a "long" case.

Granted, the dial and the case are the same design as the ad watch.

I think the ad is distorted, and this watch is a match.

But the other watches aren't distorted.

I think the Director beside it is distorted also.  It looks more rectangular than it is in actuality. 

You can see the distortion of the ad by the way the watch is curved off to the right.  We're not seeing it head on, enabling us to better evaluate the proportions.

The ad was scanned and the subject watch was on the bound end of the magazine or publication, so it was not flat on the scanner.

Then shouldn't it be wider, not narrower?

Case and crystal dimensions may solve the question. (I know I'm the only one questioning as of now)
