Note: In an old book on Rockford watches, it states.....
Model 62 ... plain movement 1600 were made. The
info states model 62a is the same movement, but
with a nickel movement ... only 100 of this type
were made. The book is from 1976
.................Any Feedback?
Curator Response: Based on original catalogs, the Grade 62 was a nickel movement.
