Late 1923 I'm guessing, these are fun and informative.

June 1923 ad.  I betcha the 155 was also for the 18k filled, like subject watch.

Pretty safe bet Will!

Like you say elsewhere, ( and I was too, back in 2013!), these gold filled models will use the preceding odd numbers as an ID.

And they are all Lady Maxims too if my ideas are correct, and the theory looks sound.

I agree Kathy, based on the gold content.
