My latest Rockford - What is the grade ?

[HenryB]

Rockford 18S-17 Jewel Adjusted-number 659435, SS dial. Dial has a a small chip at the lever (hidden by the bezel).

Any idea on the grade? I think its a 930, but can not verify this, cause Shugart's numbers do not list it.

Also it came in a switched 3oz. Dueber Silverine case (with the thick mineral crystal).
I switched it temporarily to this GF case, until I test the time, because I can not open the Dueber with my Arithitic fingers :smile:

I just recently acquired this and fixed it up, and now it is running. My repair comments, I will post in Doug's Repair Board.

Henry,
It is a nice watch. Not a particular special
one but it's running and a working piece of history.

It is a grade 930. 0N9L 18s Full plate, Nickel, Lever Set,. Total production for the grade 930 was 8770.

Considering the large production numbers from Elgin and Waltham it could be considered a very collectable watch because of the lower number produced.
