Footnotes:
This calibre, 526-5, was manufactured throughout the 1950's. The serial numbers in 1950 began with 60,000 and it has been suggested that up to 4,700 Atmos' per year were being manufactured at this point in time. If this was the case, it would suggest a date of manufacture of around 1957 for the current clock.
