Note: Mine is lever set between 4 and 5 ,Also noticed my
plate lay out is different than the majority
photoed . there is one like mine pendent up
balance cock is at bottom right.Maybe different
grade but still inscribed as Wm. McKinley ?

Curator Response: Thanks for the report. It sounds as though your Wm. McKinley watch is hunting configuration (pendant at 3:00 position). Many of the user uploaded images are of openface watches, which will appear slightly different than a hunting configuration. For reference, #2803194 is a Wm. McKinley Model 4 Hunting movement.
