Can you tell me if the 161 would/could originally come with a variant dial? Thanks Bob

Hello Bob,

Illinois 161 21-Jewel may front the first of five variant style dials shown here:

CLICK: • FIVE GENUINE ILLINOIS 161 AND 163 VARIANT DIALS SHOWN IN DETAIL •

Lindell explains you will see "Illinois 21-Jewel 60 Hour" markings.

It could also be equipped with a non-variant dial.

Hope this is of help to you and others.

Don

Don, Thanks. Very informative. Have 1 with standard dial, thinking of another, but would prefer a variant.
