Ok so fifth in the database, 1st with the bracelet.

1932 movement in a 1931 case.

All other examples are in a 1931 case.

The 9AF seems to be the correct movement for this model, the that could be used to date to 1932, despite being in a 1931 case.

That's a beauty; gotta believe the band rates as "hen's teeth". I'm inclined to date it by the case as 1931.
