Serial Number 1404440 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: I'd love to think this is a railroad watch, but I
don't think it is. The movement is not inscribed
21 jewels -- or any jewel count -- and it doesn't
say "adjusted." Also, the dial features roman
numerals, not arabic ones, which I think
disqualifies it from railroad grade status. It is
a Model III, as noted, and is lever-set ... it's a
nice watch that keeps very good time, but I don't
think it's as advertised here.

Curator Response: The Hampden database has been reconstructed from known examples. Please upload photos of you watch so we can update the ranges accordingly.
