The 3rd wheel would have an extended pivot upon which the 'drive wheel' would be friction fitted. The numerals on the dial would have been filled with luminous material (dangerous Radium) if still in place it would even now be too dangerous to wear on your wrist! Tylden.

Rebberg was a registered trade mark of Aegler.
Aegler was of course acquired by Rolex, Wilsdorf & Davis etc.
