This post from 2014 is interesting regarding the serial numbers. Seems to coincide with my watch here. The watch face is so much different than all the others I see from that year.

Just an update on the serial number discrepancy, I have now seen the same thing on 4 watches. The assembly reference numbers inscribed during manufacture on the underside of the parts, to keep them all together, all match the mainplate number. Even the barrel bridge, with its different number on top, matches the plate with the number inscribed underneath itself, so my original assumption that the parts are from different watches is incorrect. This watch is oddly all original.

Does anyone know of a good set of watchmakers screwdrivers so i can pull the movement out? I looked online a bit but there doesn't seem to be any 'mid-range' sets... it's either expensive or really cheap. I am hesitant to purchase a cheap set because I have had experience with cheaply made tools in the past. It's just not worth it.
