17 Jewel, 10BM Movement I thought maybe the Arnold but I believe the 1950 Arnold was a 15 Jewel movement? Notice the gold scrolling on the sides of the case only. Bought off ebay a couple weeks ago $35 shipped. What do we think boys?

HMMM... Actually the 7 jewel "Walton" I posted, looks similar... (but rather to the Hancock) I think???
This (1950- 53+?) model, is NOT a Minuteman... (It's rather a Keith, Shoreham, Standish or maybe even a Stanton????) LOL...
And I also have a photo of the plain (vs. engraved) bezel varietal... that is also undoubtedly one of the four above, as well...
And it's a "Hancock," vs. Handcock," BTW! (Wink...)

Let me know when you find a name. I have a 1950 model with no engraving. The lug end is set at a 45 degree angle where the lug comes onto the bezel. That angle will be key to finding the correct name for this watch. An example of this watch cannot be found in the site ad archieves. I have checked several times. The second pic is all engraved.
AWE HA! 3/3 from 1950!!!
Ok... There's the Shoreham, Stanton and Standish. (All 1950+ varietals, I believe... that take the same crystals!) NOW, where the heck are the ads/Jewelers catalogs to discern which are what!? (DARN !!!)
SHOREHAM (1950) STANDISH (1950) STANTON (1950)

HMMM... Alphabetical, from plain to most engraved bezel??? LOL...
