Curator Response: Thanks for the report and images. The "15 Jewels" on your movement was added post-factory. The movement is actually 11 Jewels, consistent with factory records for this run. If you happen to have a photo of the dial plate showing the jeweling, please feel free to upload it to your collection for further review. Thanks!
