Serial Number 1327300 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: 1327300 is 15 jewels

Curator Response: Thanks for the report and the image uploads. The "15 Jewels" marking on your movement was added at a later time, not at the factory. The third wheel is not jeweled, indicating it actually contains 13 jewels, not 15 jewels.

Serial Number 1327729 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: It was correct including the jewel options but for
better accuracy, you might note that this serial
number is in fact 13 Jewel.
