Here is another one of the Ralston Purina "Pig" advertising watch. I did not crack this one open as it is a top loader. It should be a 17J movement 11 ALC. The dial is actually from a Sea King GD but cased in an Sea King AK/AL. It is distinctive in that the hour markers are identical size with black accents. I assume with the custom watch division the dial and cases were a marriage and not a regular model thus the deviations we see. It does not match the dial on the other Ralston Purina watches. They have larger 3, 6, 9, 12 markers or longer stick markers or difference cases. Therefore I am calling this a generic Sea King

Very cool, a really interesting advertiser/custom dial with a really unique second hand.

Pretty sure this one floated by on eBay last week? I guess generic Sea King is OK for ID

Yup...This is the one. Surprised there were no bidders. Got it real cheap.
Nice one Jim!
