Serial Number 393111 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: My watch #393111 has a key wind flange on the back
plate and also has a pendant wind mechanism. I
believe this is known as a transitional model.
All of the other info is correct.
Curator Response: Thanks for the report. The database has been updated accordingly.
