Serial Number 1502865 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: Hunter configuration. Also, interesting to note my
example has an A.W. CO. Case, with presentation on
cuvette dated December 1880 (If original, that
would date the watch about a year earlier than
estimated)
Curator Response: Thanks for the report. The database has been updated accordingly.
