    From 1933-1966 Ingersoll had the exclusive Disney Mickey Mouse watch license, and for 5 years after that several companies had rights to market the MM watch (Timex, Hamilton, Lorus)
    In January 1972 Bradley watch started exclusive rights and help that for 18-ish years.

    The first model was the walking "skinny" mickey stepping on the 7, for a short production run, then this was changed to the walking "Fat" mickey for the next couple of years. This was lastly changed to the Standing Mickey resembling the original 1930's Ingersoll.

    Anyway.. here I have my "Birth" watch, an early 1972, of the early production run..

    Walking "Skinny" Mickey, unworn, in the original box.

    I've seen vintage Tudor Mickey from mid 60's that the owner said bought as official merchandise of Disneyland. How it fit in your MM licensing history above?

    From 1966 - 1971 several houses produced MM watches, without exclusive rights. (This is my understanding)
