Research Note: Rockford Serial Lists designate this run as Grade 46. However, it is beleived the grade number was transposed in factory serial lists. Additionally, the preceding run consists of movements listed as "Grade 64" that are consistent with the earlier Grade 46 run. Therefore, it is believed this run is actually comprised of Grade 64 movements (Model 6, Gilt, 15 Jewels) while the preceding run is actually Grade 46.
