Serial Number 5811690 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: This movement is 15 jewel not 7 jewel or 11 jewel
as indicated in your records. The plate the
balance bridge goes on has four screwed jewels
plus the two balance jewels and the top plate has
four pressed or friction jewels and the balance
bridge has two jewels and the Pallet Fork has two
jewels and the roller table has one jewel. Hope
this is a help to you.

Curator Response: Thanks for the report. If possible, please upload an image of the movement to your collection for further evaluation and documentation.
