Unknown PW Movement Help Please !!
I have this mvmt/dial/hands, that I know nothing about Frown

Please take a moment and help with any ID help, maker, what is it, size, value, etc etc etc. The mvmt is not running, but the balance is free/good and I have no case for it.

The dial side is 43 mm's, mvmt size is 41.5 and it has the Patent date of Feb. 14th '88. [ A Valentine's Day Surprise Maybe] Big Grin

I have 3 pictures to view.

regards,
bb

The seconds hand looks like one off an Elgin 571, doesn't it?

Not sure if this could be it, this patent was issued Feb 14, 1888. It is for a stop watch.
