Serial Number 4598106 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: Hi
I see you went in and changed the PWDB to almost
everything I mentioned in my note below. You did
not make the model change. It is a Model 11 not a
Model 14. I thank you for making the
modifications. It is back up on ebay now
1/30/2024. Please update the Model Number to 11
per the Illinois Data Base.

Curator Response: Thanks for the report. The database has been updated accordingly.

Serial Number 4598106 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: According to the Illinois data base serial
numbers 4598001 to 4598300 are the last batch of
300 19j model 11's made in 1925. If you enter
serial number 4598301 it comes up as the first 19j
model 14 type 1. This watch, 4598106, is on ebay
right now, 12/8/2023. It is clearly not a type as
there is no "60" on the motor barrel.
Curator Response: Thanks for the report. This information has been noted in the research notes for this run.

Serial Number 4598164 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: This is a model 11, 19j, 48 hour Bunn. Evidently
the factory serial number database shows this as a
model 14 60 hour but due to special orders the
serial number database has anomilies such as this.
Curator Response: Thanks for the report. If possible, please upload an image of the movement to your collection so we can take a closer look.
