Watch Description

This is a beautiful 1929 something or other.  It matches an unknown in the database which was initially identified as a Richard:

Whatever it is, its almost 100 years old and it runs like a top and I'm happy to own it.

Hmmm...  I appear to have jumped the gun on that date, didn't I? This movement is from the 1930s. But this thing looks exactly like that previous unknown. I wonder if this movement is a replacement and the case is 1929?
 

a puzzle.

Stephen,

I figured out what happened here.  I somehow posted a movement and case back from a 1939 watch that I have.  Is there any way to delete this so that I can resubmit this watch?  I really apologize.  This information is all wrong (its a 13AF movement consistent with a 1929 date).  

I messed this up royaly.

Great looking watch remarkable condition. I've always been a fan of the white/yellow gold combinations. Alas, we still don't have a name for this one.

I've come back to this one a few times and am still at a loss. It's beautiful but I can't find a name for him.
