8f172b1:g:IYMAAOSwY7Flvn3v , Watch on Ebay shows
something wrong here?
Curator Response: Thanks for the report. The watch on eBay shows a 17-Jewel Adjusted movement, similar to the No. 165. Waltham frequently combined similar runs in the serial lists, and this appears to be the case here as well. Not unusual, and the factory serial lists are the best available source for information until surviving examples like this show up and can be recorded. I have added this one to the research notes for this run.
