Serial Number 528551 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: All is correct but on mine, the Movement Markings
also has "5 Positions" added under Adjusted.
Apparently that change was made sometime in this
run because I have serial #524262 from one year
prior which only says Adjusted but is also from
the same run according to my Illinois
Identification and Price Guide by Roy Ehrhardt.

Serial Number 526606 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: Movement 526606 is a hunting movement in a hunting
case with the stem at 3:00 position.To my
knowledge the 940 is an openface movement & the
941 is a hunter movement.Please correct me if I am
wrong.
Curator Response: After evaluating your photos on eBay, it appears that you have an interesting conversion dial. The movement is openface. However, the dial places the seconds bit at the 9:00 position, allowing the watch to be mounted in a hunter case.
