Watch Description

Interesting ladies watch with engraved dial. It appears to be a variant of this one, which is  currently the only other example of this casing in the database; and currently ID'ed as possible Debutante variant - Unknown. Both are matching case and movement dated 1928.. Identical case and movement - different dial.

A really attractive model and keeping time.  Missing the Pat. 1924 celluloid from the dust cover.

Wow Bob how great is that to find two with original bands!  Hopefully we can find an ad for these beauties one day.

Nice watch! In my book I call it an Unknown from the Debutante family that had 5 engraving styles, the subject watch being one of them, and three finishes: matt, gloss, oxidized. The men's version of this model is called Revere.

That's a nice find Neet, especially with it still in running condition. Treat it gently because parts are not going to be easy to find for the 6AF movement.
