So as I consider what constitutes a non-conforming, this watch comes to mind.  Admin notes a movement swap or marriage.  Several years difference between case date and movement date. I had as Lone Eagle, changed to non-conforming, then changed back to Lone Eagle.   Now I'm wondering...

I still haven't rated ID with ticks yet...  Only two voters so far.  Lets see if that changes....:)

...and to my surprise, after running a search, there are only four "non-conforming" watches in the database.  This category isn't assigned as often as it possibly should be?  Don't "know" if subject watch belongs there or not.

It is what it is, a Lone Eagle. My vote is Lone Eagle with notations that movement has been changed.
