NOTES: This is the latest example, by far, of the Sky King that I have seen. I'm wondering if, by this late date, it had been renamed to something else. We'll have to wait and see if an advertisement shows up to confirm or deny that it was still a Sky King in 1934. Note that I used the movement to date the watch, as the case has an atypical 6-digit serial number, rather than the usual 7-digit number. The watch came with the matching bracelet, bearing the same double-x pattern as that seen on the bezel of the watch.
