This is an Elgin grade 124 pocketwatch, 18 size, 15 jewels, made about 1893.
This movement has all its blued plate screws, likely originals. One of the screw has a head that it not only not blued, but not even polished. This one goes in a recessed hole, it is not visible when the watch is assembled.
This movement also had a broken off roller jewel. I found the broken off piece inside the watch. That doesn't usually happen.
The secondary serial number stamps use a non-numeric prefix symbol for the tens of millions digits.
