You won't find an ad for this one. Some of us believe it is the pre-cursor to the subsequent wandering seconds version of the President due to its striking resemblance to that model, but there's no proof to support that belief. There's also no other President shown in the ads for 1933. There's a well known 1932 President, and a well known 1934 President, but no 1933 version. This example appears a lot with a 1933 date.
Some believe that, because the outside track doesn't fit the shape of the bezel, it is a Frankenbully, i.e., wrong dial in the wrong case. However, this exact configuration has been seen over and over again, most of the time with ample evidence that the dial has been in the case for a very long time.
I consider mine to be a President, but only "tentatively", due to the absence of a matching ad.
Yep I searched and saw no ad, as you say. There are other watch records w/ similar configuration/year w/ three stars....and I agree this is a tentative Pres at best. Other mis-id'ed watches don't make this a three star President....but an ad would. Thanks Nova
Two stars and we'll see who chimes in.
