Note: This S/N has more than 11j. It has the 3 friction
set jewels on the train bridge but also has
screwed in jewel settings on the center wheel and
the barrel. I didn't remove the dial to check the
top plate for corresponding jewels. The
damaskeening matched on the train bridge and the
barrel bridge.
