Research Note: Waltham Serial Lists designate this run as a Model 1908 "Crescent St." with 21 jewels. However, surviving examples from this run conflict with these records. Several reports indicate this run is comprised of 15-Jewel and 17-Jewel movements. #26071379 has been verified with traits consistent with the Grade No. 615 classification. For this reason, the database has been updated accordingly.

Original Serial List: Model 1908 "Crescent St." with 21 Jewels
Revised: Model 1908 No. 626 with 17 Jewels.

Note: Doesn't say Crescent Street on the plate. It does
have stamped in the metal: 17 Jewels and is
pendent set with a nickel plated movement.
Definitely not a railroad grade watch but still a
great runner.
