Serial Number 1554524 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: Can't figure out the Jewel # and not sure on the
Movement setting but it is a Huntingt Movement
Configuration. The remainder seems correct. There
is no marking # of jewels, however there is a
marking "safety pinion", whatever that means. The
inside movement cover has K192 stamped.The inside
face case is also similarily marked with sterling
silver added. Dial is double marked 13 to 24 Hrs
inside and I to XII outside.
