Serial Number 30628821 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: Serial number 30,628,821 is listed as UNADJUSTED
in the database. This is not correct. This
movement came out of a deck chronometer clock. The
movement is fitted with an alloy balance wheel and
non magnetic hairspring. It also has a micro
screw, whip spring type regulator. It most
certainly is adjusted.
Curator Response: Thanks for the report. If possible, please upload an image of the movement to your collection so we can take a closer look.
