Hi everyone. I need help identifying this watch so I can buy a stem and crown for it. There is no serial number, but it is marked swiss unadjusted.

It looks like an ETA mid-1950s movement, possibly a 1256.

However if you look on the base-plate near where the balance is you might find a number or ETA symbol to confirm this.

Thanks for the tip Dan. The mark and number are right where you said. ETA 1266 L with TXD on the balance cock.

Not bad for $6.49 on eBay. (Working no less!!!)

CORRECTION... It is a 1256 Sorry for any confusion. Jim

Here's the original catalog listing (1954):

Hi René, Thanks for the research. I appreciate it. That is a cool ad.
