What kind of movement?
I was wondering if anyone knew what this might be.

the case is No 18 fine silver, and it says cylindre 10Rubis, then Geneve.
The inside cover has a number 48862 and has the word CUIVRE after it.
By the way, the case number is the same as the movement number.

Thank you for any help.

Regards,
Larry

Thanks Larry but I would not have an hour hand to match it. It would be cool if I did though.

Thanks anyway,
Harry
P. S. I heard about the case. Ouch!!! I hope you were able to save it.

Larry, the 10 Jewel Cylinder movement is the same as a 15 Jewel "normal" movement because the Cylinder has no Pallet fork reducing the "count" by 5 Jewels (2 pivot, 2 pallet and 1 roller). If it runs keep it as an ornament of the obstinate Swiss stubborness to resign themselves to the superoirity of the "lever" type escapement design. If it does not run, I would sell it for "steampunk parts" on eBay!

btw, I might have a matching Hr Hand. (Only if it runs)

Thanks David,

No it doesn't run, the third wheel pinion is broken. I had an Idea it was something like that. Would you like the hour hand just in case you might have use for it?

Thank you everyone.

Larry
