Works for me! I see the logic, and it seems to be a very reasonable explanation.

"Revisionist" means that there was some accepted history to revise. I think we're writing the history - who else discusses the tail end of Quadron production!


I've never had the 325 and 123 side by side to see the differences; I had assumed that it was a continuation of the caliber based on appearance only. Certainly 325s are Guild only, and have a different serial number system too.

I point out, though, that the UV390 pocket watch caliber uses the same serial number system, and is in fact a direct continuation of the UV (and not a Guild movement). So I did not think that serial number was conclusive evidence.
