Yet again, proved to be a Sky King.

        1931 ad with XX engraving all round.

         Blowup showing X engraving a little clearer.

For what its worth, today i bought a watch on eBay that matches Jared's.  It has the XX design instead of the fish pattern, and also gold radium numerals and matching hands.  I saved the picture from eBay, but I'm not sure how to post them in a comment like this.  The case number is 1067649.  It has a 10AN movement, but I can't make out the date code in the picture of the movement. 

Anyway, fascinating discussion...  Great for a newbie like me, as far as trying to figure these beauties out...

dhhirsch   It would be best if you entered the watch and pictures here:

This way we can discuss the watch/model.  If you have pictures and the info posted above, you have most of what's needed to enter the watch at the link.  
Thnaks, and I look forward to seeing it, if you chose to enter as above.
