Lovely dial. 15 jewels and Breguet overcoil on the hairspring. Have you got a pic showing all the movement, i.e. looking from the crown? I've no idea what the movement is, it will be easier to ID once out of the case and measured. -
I just broke my Rule #1 - Do not buy a watch unless you can see a good pic of the movement. I currently don't have anything to work on (itchy fingers) and as I just got this for £20 from ebay, (sold as "working"), I thought it was worth the gamble. I liked the look of it, It has 21 jewels, so I'm assuming automatic. The back says "Incabloc" and "waterproof", so it looks to be reasonable quality. The case looks good. From the little I've found on google, the Credos Lugran company was formed in 1954., and bought by Bucherer in the 60s. This looks 50s-60s to me. There's a reference to using good quality ETA movements. I hope so.

This will give you time to figure out where you want things, should also give you a feel for the height that suits you. I'm jealous, i wanted to start my new watchroom but it might be put on hold for now. -
Hi all of you, I've just received a pocket watch without any brand name wich looks quite old, and the only information I could see on the movement is 7020. I haven't disassembled it yet, and I must admit I am a bit reluctant to do it as it seems old (but it works well). Could anyone help me? Here are some photos. -
@Michael1962 the advantage you have this way Michael is you can try things out and plan better how you want it to be long term. I was thinking as well you need to consider storage, maybe tools at the workbench, a metal cabinet at the cleaning station for chemicals, tools and materials at the polishing/machining bench and spare parts at the test station.
