Hi Jenneke,
very nice watches! This watch is the "Master Supreme", at $39.75 it sold for $10 more than the regular "Master". This price difference did not alone come from the decoration but mainly because of the metal band it came with. This also answers the question if the leather strap were original. Unfortunately not...
Here a 1937 ad showing the two together:
The (plastic) crystal is NOT SUC MU175 or GS MT377 as you might find advertised in the bay. This would be the crystal for the "Curvex Master"!
