Note: The basic info about the movement is accurate, but
the exact movement layout is different from the
illustration in that it is identical to a movement
with 440,000 serial number
Curator Response: Thanks for the report. All of the Grade 706 photos in the 440,000 serial range currently show 16-Size, Model 9, Bridge Plates, matching the model diagram image from factory catalogs.
