Serial Number 1949940 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: I posted this watch previously as you can see by
the serial number. At the time I thought it was
interesting that is was given "Railroad Grade"
status. I no longer believe this can be correct
due to lack of adjustments, etc., and would like
to see it corrected on the database or an
explanation. Thank You for your time and
attention...…..jconnors043 *****@hotmail.com
Curator Response: This is correct. Since the movement is not adjusted, it would not have quailified for railroad service.
