Wrist watches for Girl Scouts were offered as early as 1926 in the catalogs,
however, these watches did not have any Girl Scout logo on the face of the
watch. That didn't happen until 1931 when an imported 6-jewel watch was first
offered. By 1932 an American made version, with 7-jewels was offered. Ingersoll
started in 1935 with 4 versions, then Guilford briefly offered a version, then
Medana offered two different straps to it's watch in the 1950s. Timex jumped on
board in 1957 and offered several varieties of watches, including the first
Brownie Girl Scout watch 1962.
Most of these images come from catalogs. I've added real images of watches
when possible.
