I have an 1883 13j 18s Waltham, serial number 3324317. When I looked it up on an online database it says that there were only 1000 of these made, all in 1887. I am wondering is someone can verify that out of a book or if its just the number of them made in 1887 and thousands were made in other years.

Thanks in Advance.

Jim this is what I found using another source.

Thanks Phil,
But it looks like we got the same info, probably from the same site. Perhaps someone will have some info from a offline source.

Jim the reason that I thought you might have a different source is that you have it as a 13 jewel and I found it as an 11 jewel.

Sorry, my mistake, I miscounted. It is an 11 jewel movement.

Hello Jim....

Your watch is an 11 jewel, Mdl 1883, grade No. 3, made in a run of 1000 starting at 6-1-1887 ending on 9-30-1887....

In total there were 81 runs with a total production of 87,400 units being made up until 1898....

Regards,

Jerry

Thanks Jerry,
Thats why I wanted to check with an offline source. Sometimes these online databses dont give you all the info. Still a nice watch.
