Rare find for us gents, I think we've seen just under a handful of this variant. I believe this to be a 1938 Rite-Angle with explosion variant dial. I could have sworn we had an ad someplace showing this but I can't seem to find it right now.
Little worn on the edges in the back as they usually get, and a replacement crown from the 50's, but it still looks and runs well. The lines and points on the case in the front are great with little to no wear.

Yeah I do believe it is original. I've only ever seen another in this post that Watchcrystals posted like half a decade ago: It's showing a couple of others I've never seen since either!

You know I've never seen the box that the linked watch is in ever either. it sure looks like it matches the Rite-Angle perfectly, but it says 21 Jewels on it. I don't know that I've ever seen a 21 Jewel Rite-Angle, but then I've never seen a salmon colored or brown/gold colored one either.
