Gruen Authority

The downsized version seems to be a Strap 263 with filed down band attachment. It seems to have originally had 6 ring elements which were filed down to 4 and two stubs do fit a different band. And I believe that this is the "real" Tilton. I have about 20 ads from 1934 to 1939 showing a Tilton and all of them have the small size.They come with different dials (white and black). But there is not a single one showing Strap 320 as Tilton. Does anyone have a proof showing Strap 320 as "Tilton"?
