Serial Number 15292944 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: OK it's been a bad night. A correction to the
correction it is an open face movement.
Curator Response: Based on the photo uploaded by MountainSkyS which matches your serial number, I can confirm this is a hunting movement. The lack of the seconds bit on the dial allows it to appear as an openface movement; however, the ratchet wheel and the fourth wheel in the train are adjacent.
