NOTES:  The case and dial certainly appear to match the ad for this version of the Beau Brummell; however the movement jewel count in this example is higher than the one specified in the ad.  Interestingly, the other two Beau Brummells shown in the same ad along side this one indicate 23-jewel movements, matching this example.  I have not seen any other examples of this Beau.
