Help identifying an old movement please

[Deggsie]

Hello all. I recently bought a tin of ‘mixed’ movements , mostly ladies calibre and the remainder older vintage calibre from pocket watches and men’s wrist watches. One of the movements has me baffled by its makers mark which I hope some of you can help me with please. For want if a better description it looks like a ‘First Aid Cross’ with 61482 beneath it. I have attached photos of the movement.

 

The dial is ceramic finish red XII, with no other clues as to who the made the watch

 

Any ideas would be much appreciated.

 

Kind regards, Deggsie

i have seen this marking before since i work on old ww1 trench watches the cross is the "swiss federal cross" and indicates a patent its not a logo. the number under the cross would be the swiss patent number, sometimes you see "brevet" or "brev" next to the number. it looks like it can be gallet electa but usually those had patent dates on the opposite side of the movement. check out these links
