Do ya think this could have been an AA in another life, say eight or nine years earlier?

Jewel count is incorrect on this one, however I do think We see several Watches Dated 1953 and beyond which were originally intended to be a part of the 'AA' Series, 'MARLBORO', 'WARWICK' are 2 which come immediately to mind.

Maybe a few years before it could have had a different movement, just looking at the open minutes and seconds tracks, similar to AA's.
I really like those 'crab claw' like lugs, quite a handsome watch.
