Serial Number 7699083 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: This watch movement (#7699083) appears to be a
7-Jewel (~not 15j). See eBay Listing
#372615549680 for detailed Pics & stated
jewel-count. [Note: They seemingly ignored the
"Mixed Run" note (15 or 7 Jewels), & then used
this Pocket-Watch Database to justify claiming
(~guessing?) that it has 15 jewels~ rather than
7!]
Curator Response: Thanks for the report. #7699083 has been confirmed as a 7-Jewel movement. [eBay #372615549680]
