Serial Number 18229001 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: Not really a no. The movement is marked Equity
Watch Co., Boston, 7 Jewels and it looks just like
the Traveler here except the finish is nickel. The
SN on the movement is 37445. I can't find any runs
that include Equity Watch with an SN near this!
Thanks,
