Don't think I've ever seen the version with "P A C K A R D E I G H T " on the dial, but I have seen a few of the octagonal case Packard watches with standard Arabic numerals and either a white face or a black face, with the Packard radiator on it. I want to say it had a scroll at the bottom of the radiator, like Packard advertising frequently featured, and said either Ask the Man Who Owns One or Of a Distinguished Family. I have one of them with the black and gold face, something I bought over 40 years ago outside of Lansing MI. Not sure if these were given to buyers of new Packards by some dealers, or whether they were available through the dealers' parts and accessories division.
