Bulla Watch With Unidentified Movement


Recommended Posts

Hi All!

 

A friend has trusted me (ME!) with an old Bulla watch that is a non-runner. The main problem was quickly apparent, broken balance pivot, and I'm not yet sure if there's anything else wrong, but the train seems intact and spinning.

 

My immediate difficulty with obtaining a replacement balance or balance staff is that I can find no identifying marks anywhere on the (not yet disassembled) movement.

 

It looks like some AS movements that I've seen on Bid-Fun but I'm not sure. The only further assistance I can give is that the dial says that it is a 15 jewel movement.

 

Here's the movement and a photo of the pivot. Can anyone identify it please? It might end up as my first full disassembly and (attempted) rebuild!

 

Thanks!

I'm revisiting this post in the hope that someone may now have some input, as I'd like to return the watch to my friend as a going concern.

 

I've gone through Ranfft's list of AS movements sifting out the 11.5"' movements but just can't pin this one down. Am I looking in the wrong place

 

Help!!
