This is an "Anchor" (American style) lever escapement Double Roller s/n 1507262 Private Label Swiss-made Micro-regulated RR grade watch (I Think) with plate cuts that are "Omega-ish". Who can help me I.D. This please? | ||

Nice Canadian A.W.C.Co. "Fortune" Case and Flawless Hands and Dial! Pvt Label signed on the movement is F.E.Blackmer Fredericton, New Brunswick. Excellent workmanship overall. Needs cleaning and service. | |||

David, Looks like the odds are about 99.9% that you've got a Longines. Check out eBay item 280219104535 for more pics. Note the cutout/relief for the click. Appears to be identical. Gene | |||

Chris and Gene, Thanks to both of you. The Longines confirms it. That is definetly a match, and also it dates about right . . c.a. 1904-5 for the case and stuff. | |||

David, The micrometer regulator and screwed in centre jewel smacks of Zenith / Favre Leuba to me, it may be worth you researching that line rather than Omega/Longines!. I have a very similar movement in storage in the Uk, will post a pic next week when I'm back there. (presently in France). Best regards John. PS. Congrats on the appointment to moderator, Well Done!
