Claude GriffithBurlington Special 19j pendant set hunter
I picked up a 16 size Burlington Special triple signed hunter that is pendant set. sn 2510676 and it does not have double roller on the escapement bridge which means it would be a 12 size and I am absolutely sure it is 16 size. I always thought all 16 size Burlington Specials and Burlingtons either 19 or 21 jewel watches were lever sets. Any Illinois experts that can comment?

Claude Griffithyep. got home and checked it out size wise rather than going by the original listing which was wrong. Can't complain got it for under $50 and the case is brass free, movement and dial clean.

Claude GriffithBuster thanks for the production numbers since for a mail order watch under 6,000 puts it a bit on the uncommon side. It needs a COA and a mainspring but just an overall nice clean looking movement, dial and after cleaning the case it looks nice also.
