Larry LamphierFrancis, That is a Wadsworth #2 BOC Hamilton case. I would have to see the inside of the back cover to see the serial number to tell if that is the right case for that year movement.
That is a VERY hard to find #151 dial that is on the watch now. I have one that is in really nice condition.
Here is a link to the dials that are in this forum;
Hamilton 992, 992E, and 992B Case & Dial Identification. (1924-1971) I would say from looking at that dial and all the crud around the jewel settings that all it will probably need is a good COA to get the movement running again.

If Francis passes on the 151 dial, I would be interested in it. Thanks!
