Serial Number 25678056 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: mine says 23 jewels adjusted and 6 positions I
believe the rest is right...not very pocket watch
savy but by lever I am guess you mean when you
open the face side of the watch there is a little
piece by the 11 that pulls out and then you can
set the watch with the winder...mine has the up
down indicator as well.
