I have a 929 that is almost a twin of yours. Sn 17066 from 1895. Same dial and hands and also a sidewinder but not a private label. It was sold to a customer in Aberdeen, South Dakota in 1896 and I got it in 2014 from a seller in Aberdeen.

Thanks Robert for showing yours. I suppose they are
not twins but could be brothers being only 180 #'s
apart. I love these old movements. Nice for 120 years old. And think of the age of the guys that
purchased them a 120 years ago.How old were they when they bought them 20,30,40 or more.It just amazes me!

Roger

nice set of hands on it as well.

nice one Roger

You have some nice stuff

Thanks everyone.I think I have a correct case for
it. Dial could use some cleaning. But overall pretty nice.
