Serial Number 3731023 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: watch was reported on 1-21-15 as being a 21j
instead of a 19j. I recieved this watch #3731023
in the last 6 months and have totally gone thru
it. It does not have cap jewels on the visible
side {back} on the escape wheel or the pallet
fork thus it is a 19j

Jewels changed from 21j to 19j

Serial Number 3731023 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: This serial Number is a 19 jewel red lettered
movement. Apparently both 19 and 21 jewels made
during this run. The watch physically looks to
have 21 jewels though.
