Hello all.

I bought some pocket watches with one that is of more interest to me. It came from a German lady and she believes it has been in the family since new. Markings indicate swiss made.

Squirrel and tree very prominent.

Please advise.

Regards

Gold hallmarks: Swiss (squirel) and German (crown).

The tree hallmark indicates the watch/case manufacturer most likely.

The pics show three movements (all from A. Lange in Glashütte) with higher grade but same base.

It is most likely the caliber 43 made in Glashütte Germany by the „Deutsche Präzisions-Uhrenfabrik Glashütte“ (a brand of A. Lange)

Its a swiss made case. The case stamps only relate to the case not the watch movement.  The squirrel is the standard stamp for 14k gold, different grades of gold have different stamps. The tree is probably the assay stamp where it was assayed the letters beneath the assay stamp will be the year it was assayed.
