Serial Number 4548060 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: I have 4548060, it is open face not hunter. other
than bridge plate the serial number on all other
pieces includes a W prior to serial number.
On the bridge plate the 454 is small than the
8060.
Curator Response: Thanks for the report. The Grade 120 was exclusively produced as a hunting movement. Verify that you are considering the movement and not the case. If you still believe it is an open face movement, feel free to upload images for further evaluation. Thanks!
