This is a very unusual ladies watch from 1939 and stylistically unlike other ladies watches of the era. It is a 10KT yellow rolled gold plate case with a 6AM 17J movement. The movement is double stamped with a 1938 crescent and 1939 shield date code. It has a copper dial with black printed Roman numeral hour markers. Ive searched and searched and cannot find anything even close to this. It appears to have the original bracelet also.
This is a really neat model! I did a search for it and didn't find a match. It does appear to be a model with the copper dial and yellow gold which is interesting. Watchophilia has one on her site as Unknown as well in this configuration. Really pretty and interesting model.
Unknown for now.
It is really exciting to find an ad for a watch in the Unknown section. This little lady is Olympia!
The ad comes from a Bulova Watch Time advertising booklet that I have purchased and will share once I get it. The seller was kind enough to take a close photo of this watch for me. After finding the name I searched on newspapers and only found this one reference to it.
