Lugs look different and open where the band attaches, so does the dial.

I think this is the Grant....  the ad is from 1939.

Panel - do we need to re-open? I agree that it appear to be the Grant

Found another Grant advert. I'd be tentative on the ID.

Here is another ad that says 10K rolled gold plate.  Seems to look like a match to me.
