Serial Number 10566417 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: This movement is not a 23 jewel movement. It is a
21 jewel movement, and it has the diamond end
stones in the balance. Where the movement is
marked 21 jewels the 21 looks like a round brass
plate almost the same color as the jewel set
screws.

Serial Number 10566417 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: The jewel count of the movement is 23 jewels but
there has been a round brass plate or like a small
plug inserted where the marking for 23 would be
and 21 has been stamped in its place. The number
21 is larger than the normal 23 would have been.
