Peculiar that it would be classified as a baguette. It isn't.

Peculiar it is. On page 133 in Ehrhardts master book are some more outliers. All called baguette but with cal 833 or 155 inside. All with cord lugs. Maybe produced at the end of some era and everything got a bit confused?

Also the only page with silver watches (ladies at least, didnt check the boys section).
