    About this item

    This is a high quality movement probably made by Meylan and retailed by Bailey Banks and Biddle Philadeplhia

    Ticking sluggishly on a full wind, good primary chronograph function apart from sweep-seconds-hands hands being set one second out of index, engaging the split-seconds push is currently causing the mvt to stop running, overhaul needed

     

    Movement – the high quality nickel ¾ plate movement has a lever escapement and micrometer regulator. The movement has exposed steel work for the split seconds chronograph and is fully jewelled. The movement is signed “Adjusted, Bailey, Banks and Biddle, Philadelphia, Pat 1880, Swiss No 3667”. The movement is in 90% mint condition – light marks and scratches

    Dial – the white enamel has a pair of blue steel hands and a pair of chronograph hands. The dial is signed “Bailey, Banks and Biddle, Philadelphia” and is in 95% mint condition – 1 very faint hairline on the 7

    The movement is stem wound / lever set

    The movement measures 43.2mm x 10.5mm
