Research Note: Original factory serial lists designate 15164001-15165000 as Grade 376. However, statistically analysis suggests only the first 50 movements were produced before the run was terminated. Furthermore, #15164045 and #15164048 have been reported as pendant-set watches, inconsistent with standard Grade 376 production. This run has been adapted in the database.
