Serial No. 161816 = Early (1969 to 1970)


I believe that this serial number will date this Monaco to the 1969 / 1970 timeframe, which will explain its use of a Caliber 11 movement. Have a look at this Previous Message, and you will see that the very early, transitional Monacos had the 157XXX and 158XXX serial numbers. So I am thinking that 161816 would have come fairly early in the run of the Monacos.

Can you provide a photo of this one?
