It looks to be a German Haller Westminster chime movement, the reason it has not got Made in Germany on it and has Foreign is that the UK government put a tax on German clocks to protect the UK makers from cheaper German imports, however the Germans just took off any reference to Germany to avoid the tax. Your other clock is a French ODO I find them to have good quality movements in them.

Interesting, I have a clock with the same case.  Mine is an Anvil brand, made by the Perivale Clock company of London.  Going by your inscription about the same age, early/mid 1930's.

    • Hello everyone from Idaho. I started up the hobby about two years ago and love it. My latest repair, that I'm very proud of, is an Oris big crown pointer date 7400B. I'm excited to learn and to help out where I can.
    • Welcome to the forum. You need a 393-00598.  
    • An update... I bought some 316 steel washers from McMaster Carr. For days I have been turning it to get to what you see in the image.  it is not done, of course.  the inside diameter of the top as shown is close. The washer is too thick, so I am gonna need to figure a way to make it thinner. Last week I had a long talk on the phone with @SwissSeiko and got some tips. He suggested Harbor Freight insertable carbide cutters. Wow, they work well. Miles to go before I sleep. Here is my setup
    • Hello all.  I've been working on a Citizen H145-S073545 radio controlled. There was a plastic gasket in between the case and case back. Putting it back together I used a press, witch I think was a mistake, because it cut the gasket open. I've been looking online for a replacement but not having much luck. I've tried a couple crysta gaskets but that didn't work.  Any ideas of where to find these gaskets? Thanks all.
    • Yes I think blue thread locker would help you out here. You will lose the safety mechanism if the mainspring snaps, which risks damage to train wheel teeth. But your watch might run. You can maybe try inserting a hair inside the pinion and threading it on. That might give it just enough to grab hold without thread locker. Or a tiny piece of superfine copper wire, a strand from some stranded electronics wire.
