My favorite watch in my collection

I have had this watch since 1964 but can't seem to get any info on it.
Anyone know when it was made or what it is name? I checked the s/n with Elgin database and it works out to 1944. That seems too early a mfg. date for this watch. Looks to be late 50's to me. Saw the same watch posted here by Dennis, he needs info too. Any help would be appreciated.
