Serial Number 932806 was reported as inaccurate.

Note: 17 jewels, not gilt, other things may be off but
this i can confirm
Curator Response: Thanks for the report. Is the movement marked "17 Jewels"? If not, have you verified the jewel count by looking under the dial? A 16-Jewel movement can have the appearance of a 17-Jewel movement when looking at the top plate.
