I got this from my mother-in-law. I have no information about it. I don't know how old it is. It has Cinderella on the face and it does work.

This is a 1950 era US Time Cinderella. They (US Time) ran these watches for several years with an array of different packaging. US Time later became Timex. The watch could be marked either way on the back of the watch.
Thank you, it does say Timex on the back.
Your welcome, Thanks for sharing yours.
I have worked on a few of these recently. Those with US Time are mid 1950's and are powered by a #21 movement. Those with Timex were 1960's and are powered by #24 movement.
The one shown has the original strap which is a nice plus!
JersyMo, I own several and worked on even more, they could be marked either way, I have a 1968 model, yes the 24 movement, but is marked US Time on the case back. I know it's a 1968, unmolested piece, have the original sales ticket, packaging and I was the one to buy it. I agree most of the 1960's models do have Timex or plain back covers, but could be marked either way.
