The second image in root record doesn't work.  It was of the movement, and would confirm the jewel count for subject watch.

Not a Brigadier, too early.

Brigadier case, possibly? With an older movt? The 8AE could be either 17 or 21j.

Ads from 1948 for Brigadier as on page one of this thread. Pre that date is Douglas (so far).

 

1948 ad.

 

1949 ad.

Shouldn’t this be reevaluated? The first Brigadier ad wasn’t until 1948 and that was yellow gold. This is rose gold and 1945. There’s never been proof that any were made with a black dial. This appears to be a Douglas “A” with a redial to black.

Is there something I did not consider?
