Based on the serial I think about 1940 but it looks earlier

Of the dozen or so threads we've seen about a Unicorn watch, this is the only one in about 8 months that is of the era in which Rolex was involved. Most Unicorn watches that are asked about on here are from once they split off from the Rolex association much later down the road.

See that it is dated 1933 on the back.
Looks a little older, like twenties.
Unfortunately does not have the English date hallmark, or you could have had the exact year.
