Serial Number 2416885 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: My movement does not look anything like the
diagram. Mine has individual bridges for the
wheels after the mainspring.
Curator Response: This is expected with the custom plate bridges used for the Burlington Watch Company private labels. The based model is characterized by 3/4 plates and is why the reference images exhibts that.
