I've been asked to do a description... so here goes - one for the heavily obsessed. Other obsessives can feel free to add! :)
David E Heckel's "Identification and Value Guide" is the best book on Sargents IMO.
Most Sargent bench planes are numbered by the length in inches, so a 711 (pictured) is the 11" of the 700 series, C = corrugated bottom. The 700 series are the Auto-set patent, and the 400 series are the normal lever type style.
700's come in 707, 707C, 708, 708C, 710, 710C, 711, 711C, 714, 714C, 718, 718C, 722, 722C.
The 718, 718C and 722's have tilting front knobs.
The 707's and the 711C are the rare ones

Next post will show individual parts and reassembly.
