Bill, just from the patent date I think it is a Tavannes. | |||
|
I definitely thought it was swiss, but from the U.S. Patent number ???? Bill | ||||

I had a movementa while back that I was trying to identify and after looking at enough of them I was convinced it was a Tavannes. A lot of their watches of that era have that patent #. Berlin was the place Pequegnat clocks were made and they changed the name to Kitchener during WWI. | |||

Lorne, The movements sure look the same, with the exception of the winding wheels being reversed. I will go with a Tavannes, the one I showed is obviously just a 7 jewel, unadjusted one, but the markings are the same. Thanks, Bill | ||||

The wheels are probably reversed since one is a Hunter movement (Stem at the 3 o'clock) and the other is a regular /open face movement (Stem at the 12 o'clock). Dan | ||||
