Serial Number 3948220 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: #3948220 only has 4-screw's in barrel plate (1
screw is barrel click) plus 2- case screw's & wind
gear screw w/ barrel screw's. After checking all
book's this would indicate a Model # 14 unmarked
163 Bunn Special, also barrel arbor is jewel
capped w/ Ruby. Model # 11 has a extra screw. can
you explain, Thanks

gcassidy 19 · December 21, 2013

Serial Number 3948220 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: correction, model# 11 came in both pendant & lever
set. pendent set has one screw added to motor
barrel plate as in your template on this page.
both are mod # 11 ( confusing ) change template to
lever type.

gcassidy 19 · December 4, 2013

Serial Number 3948220 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: model # 11 is listed as a pendant set in complete
guide #33, also my watch plate has one less screw
on main bridge next to balance cock, this would
indicate a model # 14 or 15 like your 1st
template.
