This watch w/this style case was introduced in 1938 but w/silver luster case (see items #2367-68). This is the much rarer "Gold Electro-Plated" case variety produced from 1939 to 1942. Has original brown leather band that shows wear and VG. Watch is wound tight but not over wound and would benefit from a simple cleaning. Case has some luster loss along top/bottom edges but nearly all other gold luster remains. Dial is clean. VF. From the Jerry Howell Jr. Collection.
