This Harrison thirty hour mvt. C. 1805 has evidence of the Levenworth
movement with the threaded pinion arbors. But with this movement it has
one short idol dial mounting stud pinned to the front plate like the Riley
Whiting. This mvt. also had a sheet medal fly rather then wood. The
Levenworth movements had two short mvt. studs to attach to the dial on
the front plate. These are the correct original hands.
