Re: Blocking, Distribution and End of Series

Interesting Jeff...and i hope to be able to update the list when/if i find the missing 10 or so serials i have lost.

Of course its entirely possible they went in the skip with the remainder of the building debris from the recent work!

Cheers

: Looking quickly at Rich's list and my "Cheat Sheet" of
: serial numbers -- as it is the middle of the work-day -- seems
: to me that 307xxx, 308xxx and 309xxx may have been
: "reserved" or "blocked" for the Caliber 12
: Silverstones, but in 310 xxx we see a handful of low-numbered
: Silverstones, and then we cut-over to the Autavias (all of them
: 11630 GMTs) . . . the Cal 12 Silverstones are 310 136 and 310
: 160, and then we begin to see the Autavias at 310 244, 310 682,
: 310, 934 . . . all the way into the 311xxx range.

: So maybe we can conclude that there were fewer than 200 of the
: Silverstones with the 310xxx serial number.
