Riverside   

In the fifth run of Model 92s, 7005001-6000, Waltham departs from the Vanguard grade.  The Gray Book lists this run as being the Appleton Tracy & Co. grade but it is also the first run where the Riverside grade appears.  The Handwritten Records show that 7005001-500 are ATC movements and 7005501-900 are Riversides.  The last 100 movements are ATCs.  The Riverside is made in two movement variations.  The first movements are made with the serial number in Position 1 (SNP1), directly under the words "Waltham, Mass.".  The second variation has the serial number in Position 2 (SNP2).  The SNP2 movements appear in two variations, the difference being the size of the word "Riverside" and a slight difference in the style of the letter "R".

Variation 1  (RIV-O-V1)   Occurring in the 7005501-7018800 Range


Variation 1 movements are found with the serial number in Position 1.  The current research would suggest that somewhere between 500 and 800 of these movements were made.



























 Variation 2  (RIV-O-V2)   Occurring in the 7026501-7000 Range


Variation 2 movements have the serial number in Position 2 with the word "Riverside" the same size on Variation 1 and Variation 2 movements.  It will be larger on Variation 3 movements and the letter "R" will be slightly fancier.  The current research would suggest that 500 of these movements were produced.
























Variation 3  (RIV-O-V3)  Occurring in the 7489001-500 Range


Variation 3 movements have the serial number in Position 2 and the larger sized word "Riverside" with the fancier letter "R".  The current research would suggest that 500 of these movements were produced.
