Note: Further to the curator's response. The dial does
have a sub-second dial at the 3 o'clock position.
Would this confirm a hunter movement? Thank you.
Curator Response: Thanks for the followup. Certainly. A movement featuring a seconds dial at the 3:00 position would be classified as a hunting movement since the 4th wheel (seconds bit) is perpendicular to the pendant. These conversion dials can be a bit tricky.

Note: Movement Configuration is Openface
Curator Response: Thanks for the report. If your dial does not feature a seconds bit, the movement is still a hunting configuration with a special factory dial to allow for an openface orientation.
