Serial Number 7412174 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: This is a nit, but my example has a double-sunk
dial. I realize there was probably a mix over the
years. You can see my pics.

Note: Everything looks good except there are 2 screws in
your picture next to the crown wheel.The smaller
screw right against the crown wheel does not exist
on the watch I am comparing to. There is only 1
screw and it's the one that is closest to the
case.
