ELGIN CANTEEN DATABASE

Posted on May 21, 2020May 21, 2020 by diveboy

Happy to host the Elgin Canteen Database from the elgincanteen yahoo groups, now
under the resources menu.

Database


THE BIG ISSUE

Posted on May 20, 2019May 20, 2019 by diveboy

Some of you may have worked out already, using the 1896 grade list, there are 
436,081 incorrectly identified movements based on the 1950 material list, any
look up database also based on the 1950 material list is incorrect. Is that
really a grade 69 or a B. W. Raymond you have in your hand ?

Explained Here


1896 MATERIAL GRADE LIST

Posted on April 13, 2019April 13, 2019 by diveboy

There are flaws in the 1950 Material list that the online databases reference
for grade lookup.

This list was built using the list from the 1896 Material list before the grades
were renumbered incorrectly.

1896 Grade List


A MODEL BEFORE THE B.W. RAYMOND ?

Posted on February 10, 2019February 10, 2019 by diveboy

Who knew 153 years ago, there was a model in the factory before the B. W.
Raymond was put into production. We can only speculate what it was (18s full
plate, Keywind, Backset) as no other description or documentation exists that
says there was a model before the B. W. Raymond was put into production.
Crossman does state the B.W. Raymond was modified from being Backset during the
first production run.

Posted on February 9, 2019February 9, 2019 by diveboy

Its been a while since we have added to the site but don’t worry, we have been
busy building a Delorean to travel back to 1864 and find some undiscovered
coverage and details from the start of National Watch Company that is sure to
impress. You may have noticed a new addition on the menu “NWCo”, this will cover
the years 1864 – 1874.
