Both! It’s a Timemaster alarm watch. It has cap jewels over the hole jewels on 3 of the train wheels making 8, 2 on the escapement, 2 on the pallet pivots, and 5 on the balance (including the impulse) making 17. But no pallet stones. And it has a cheap, ‘stamped metal’ sort of bridge/balance cock, an open mainspring barrel, and the alarm spring barrel had a weird arbor/gear hybrid. Not seen that before. It was interesting to figure out how the alarm works, so learning all the time, but this was definitely a cheap one, despite being ‘fully jeweled’.

It seems this topic is becoming very interesting 😀. Here are two more pictures that might help to identify the movement. The diameter of the dial side is 40mm, and the other side 36,5mm.

I'm with @nevenbekriev Rich, it just looks a normal movement to me .... unless you know differently. Do you have pics of yours? Who is the manufacturer?

Rich, this one seems rather regular movement to me. Yes, what You describe exists, but I doubt that the one on the picture is something similar. -
@Neverenoughwatches Many thanks for your remarks. As I wrote earlier, I was a bit reluctant to disassemble this movement, and you gave me further motives to be careful. I'll just remove it from its case so as to clean it a little.
