My new project

Here another one of my projects I pick up from a flea market not found much info on it as far what movement they used etc. Though I would post it to see if anyone had any experience on them. Thanks.

Lift the movement retaining ring to see the caliber. 

Ratchet wheel on AS1187 is larger, was looking for a ratchet wheel just yesterday.

In that case AS 1194, which is the 11.5''' version of the 1187 (10.5'''). The ratchet wheels are the same for both but the overall larger size of the 1194 makes the ratchet wheel look smaller.

If you just remove the movement retainer ring, you will find the caliber right where AS stamps its trade mark.
