Other Details

 

NOTES:  This is the fifth known model in the Lone Eagle series.  Recently discovered advertisements have shown this model to also have been offered with an unengraved bezel and a full index dial.   This particular example has had a movement swap that will need to be rectified.  It should have a 17-jewel 10AN movement that dates to 1936.
