HI, Kathy.

So I did a little bit of online research.  I can't find an actual place to look up these case serial numbers but it does appear that in most men's watches made after 1926 and before 1950, the first digit indicates the year.  That is, the serial number beginning with an "8" in my case would indicate 1928, 1938 or 1948.  In my case, I am obviously guessing 1938.

I assume there is more to it than that.  Can you expalin what I'm missing?

Thanks,

Tom S.
