I believe this was my grandmothers. The engraving on the inside of the case is as follows:
U 11/28/32
U 7-12-35
I figure it was serviced on those dates. Able to embed this pic, but the 4 links show the movement, the case, and a clear shot of the face.
I shrank the images but the forum said they were too big, so I'm posting the links here.
Thanks as always

As a chrome plated ladies watch, value will be sentimental only.

Of course I was looking for the Antiques Roadshow bonus prize, but thanks for the input.

Wait, did I mention that my grandmother was not known for being a warm fuzzy? Never met her, so the price just dropped below zero.
