Serial Number 162588 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: 282332 sept 29 1903 for example
Curator Response: Thanks for the additional information. That particular run was updated with a "railroad grade" designation at some point. However, the Hamilton 926 was only adjusted to temperature and would not have quailified for railroad service. The run has been modified to correct the erroneous designation.

Waltham21j 121 · July 12, 2020

Serial Number 162588 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: The database considers some runs of 926 RR grade
but others not.I don't think any of them are.If a
926 from 1903 is RR grade for the era, as some
wish,then why isn't a 1902 run?
Curator Response: Thanks for the report. Could you provide a serial number or run from 1903 that is desiganted as railroad grade? I will check into it.
