Very nice! Do you recall how many jewels it has? I am guessing it has no shock absorber for the balance wheel? I’ve always wondered how well these faired over time.

can dig it out and take a look it had a swiss movement but one of those solid plates so you don't get to see much. it had a porcelain dial rolled gold case .. and as it from got to be 40's / 50's and after a quick tinker by me it working and holding time ( not even a watch smiths ) I got to say they seem to last got two working ones this one and a solid silver round case one ... and got a couple of none runners too ,
just took a look does not say at all no marking what so ever on it inside case says rolled gold and then foreign and the dial is unsigned too
