These were Chatwood 'A' type and Chatwood 'C' type. The former had a numbered dial and as Cepassacus states was in effect a version of the Sargent & Greenleaf heavy lock finished in dull satin chrome/nickel. This fits exactly with your illustration as regards the markings.
The type 'C' was an updated S.A.M. 3 wheel lock with 4 wheels and alphabetical dial,
Unusual, methinks, to find any of these Type 'C' Dials/locks
