Serial Number 1695210 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: This is pretty much correct for Hampden serial
number 1695210, but I didn't know how to tie
comments to a specific listing/watch.

All of the 21-jewel versions of the Wm. McKinley
*are* adjusted to positions (number undescribed -
probably 5, possibly 3), but it isn't until 1908,
or so, that they were marked and described as
being adjusted to five positions.

Also, here's a picture that shows the hunting
version of the model 4, 21-jewel, Wm. McKinley:
