It does not have an oyster case and is probably from the 30's.
It may be rare, but it is not desirable.
There is very few reference books that go into this era and type of watch.
So, probably less than 1% of the people on this blog are going to have any considerable knowledge on this particular watch.
I know a little bit about this era not a lot. And I do not know anyone that I think does know a lot.

If you want to try and determine value I would look at sold Rolexes on eBay and refine by decade to 1930-1940 and size of case in mm, from side to side, not including lugs.
The watch does not have to be exactly the same. I would expect similiar size and age watches to be in a pretty tight value range. Remember when comparing, this does not have an Oyster case, they would be considerably more valuable.

while valuations aren't allowed i will say what you have there is worth much less than the lowest value beat up oyster cased rolex like an old neglected speed king head only which could probably be bought in similar shape for $300 or less.

It is most certainly 1930's not worth much around 600.

Unfortunately, someone soldered bars to the lug ends during its life. This will really diminish the value. The above evaluations are probably pretty correct. Probably only a few hundred to someone willing to take on the project to get it back to original which would be a lot of work. The very small size is not popular right now so it isnt that desirable.
And no need to bump your thread every 30-60 minutes, thats how you get your thread deleted by the mods and possibly banned from the forum.

Stop asking the same question about the value of the watch.

Another member has already told you this is not allowed in the forum. A couple of members were kind enough to give you a ballpark and thats it.
