Research Note: Some movements in this run are marked "Culver" instead of "H.Z. Culver." The "Culver" movements were originally intended to be sold as a distinctive grade featuring a solid steel balance wheel and were only produced for a short period of time before discontinuation. Some movements during a transitional period are marked "Culver" with the upgraded expansion balance. Later, the "H.Z. Culver" and "Culver" movements were consolidated in material catalogs.
