winterwolf Supporter 97 · October 11, 2019

Serial Number 1107300 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: I noted a price guide listed 2 ones in this line.
The series 1 & the # 1. The guide states the #1 is
worth about $100 more than the series 1 model.
The series 1 is marked on the movement .... Are
those movements with no series 1 marking or any
other marking the # 1 movements?

Curator Response: Some movements in this run have been recorded as marked "No. 1" These are more uncommon that the standard Series 1, but both are considered to be classified as Series 1.
