Movement and case dated L9; has the distinctive lugs of a Winchester, but has scalloping on the sides of the case that doesn't match up to any ads or watches in the data base. All shown have smooth sides. Signed 4 times and has a "X" shadow dial with lume at indices and on hands. Mounted on a period generic band. Very little wear and is keeping perfect time. Is this a Winchester variant or something completely different that I missed?

I think it's original. There are currently 12 watches ID'ed Winchesters dating 1953 to 1959 in the database, and I think 5 of them sport this face and / or hands. All are 1953 or 1954 with the exception of one dated 1959 (no face or case side photos).
Your mention of Seaford is interesting tho, The single example in the Db dated 1954 has the same face, hands and also scalloped bezel sides. However, the lugs are completely different.
