Additional Information
This was a fun one to try and figure out. I thought it was a Priscilla, looks really close. I have an ad with Priscilla on it and after looking at it closely noticed it is a different shape. Then I thought it was a Goddess of Time. That wasn't quite right either. Finally found an ad for Co-ed, bingo! It was nicely advertised.
It has a 10k rolled gold plate bezel and stainless back. It has a 7AM working movement with an asterisk date symbol. The crystal is acrylic and yellowed. I put a new cord band on it.

1940 Co-Ed.
This is what quality looks like, it has a long life.
The money originally spent gets spread over many years of use. I tell my customers to avoid the cheap junk watches and jewellery, many are made from very questionable materials, some very toxic.
Ads from 1940 and 1941. A lower priced watch at $24.75 but that would be $450 today which still seems pretty expensive especially for the time.
