Other Details |
Because the movement is dated two years after the case, the movement is assumed to be a swap, and the case alone was used to date the watch |
NOTES: The two crystals listed are identified in G-S Crystal Catalog No 60 are identified as fitting the following models:
- Academy Award B and H
- Goddess of Time A, B, and C
- Marianne
This watch is a little late in time for the Academy Award to be a likely bet. The Goddess of Time models during this period were ornate, diamond enhanced models. That leaves the Marianne, which seems a likely bet for this simple watch. Obviously, this is a tenative model ID.
