Serial Number 1047978 was reported as inaccurate.
Note: Hi, The balance is different. The pointer is over
the plate, not the balance cock and the scale is
on the plate. The top plate has been trimmed back
to make room for the scale and adjustment. It is
closer to the drawing than the photos of other
watches. It does have a very early serial number
so perhaps the design changed? Thanks for the
database!
