The 3359 is the Oyster Viceroy, a manual-wind Oyster from roughly 1934 to 1946. The watch is small, angular, and very period in shape, usually in two-tone steel and gold but also seen in full yellow or rose gold. The dial range is unusually wide for the era, which is one reason the reference stays interesting.
