Did it come on a strap or a bracelet?

Great little watch, dial looks like it may be unmolested, but not sure. ROW on movement indicates a piece meant for USA market. Nice snag!

Dial looks original to me. Looks like the correct late 40s, early 50s printing techniques and font.
If I recall, that case should only have holes on one side. A neat feature at the time

It’s just come back from a service
It needed a balance staff and the balance had a “chip” that needed filling with solder and trueing |
