Serial Number 477159 was reported as inaccurate.
with two screws on my movement, and also on sn
458687 as show in picture. One other note: whereas
458687 shows a solid balance wheel with no timing
screws, mine has timing screws on a split balance
wheel. It is reasonable to assume this change
occurred in the narrow time between these two
movements. Additional decorative engraving was
also added to the balance cock between these two
movements.
