How similar are the cases of subject unknown and your 1947 Douglas variant "B" seen here?

I'm confused between Engineer and Douglas for 1946. If we disregard Geoff's Solid Gold 17jeweler, all other contemporary Douglas in database have 21 jewels (as the Douglas ads indicate).
Bobbee posted the newspaper ads for 21j Engineer, but below are some ads for Douglas from same time period.
