This appears to an all original example of "The Ball Presentation Watch" as shown in the lower-right corner of this 1929 catalog page. Very nice.

I can't take any credit for the ad. It was reproduced by Roy Ehrhardt in his 1978 Price Indicator. (Those are Roy's 1978 valuations printed diagonally alongside the watches ... how things have changed).

Holy smokes! Using my Cost of living calculator, that $325 resale price in 1929 dollars would be equal to $3780.26 in 2006 dollars!!! Eek

Regrds! Mark
