Serial Number 23054531 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: Watch is marked as listed here. But it is a
openface and lever set and meets and or exceeds
railroad specification's
Curator Response: Thanks for the report. Yes, if it is lever-set (this run is mixed), then it would absolutely qualify for railroad service.

Note: It is a lever set. It is open face.
Curator Response: Thanks for the report. After evaluating the photos on eBay, it appears to be a pendant-set, openface watch. This information has been noted in the lookup table.

case, not open face.
