| Movement Markings | "23 Jewels 8 Adjustments, VANGUARD WALTHAM U.S.A."stamped on the train bridge. Serial no. 33777516 is stamped plain on the back of the main plate next to the escape wheel bridge. After receiving watch found that it would not tick in the FU position due to improper clearance between the lower rim of the balance and top of the palette bridge. I finally had to replace it with a complete balance from a similar lower grade model I had in spares. |
