Icon5 Vintage Movt ID.

Hi Guys,
Can anyone ID and OK this movement please? It's from what seems to be a late 1930s Oyster Watch Co. piece. I'm no good with vintage movements, but it doesn't seem to be a Cal 59.

thanks,
Adam

Rebberg lever movement which I believe is a pocket watch movement.

The click is the same. What does the dial say? Just curious.

Here you go...serial is 67715. I'm wondering if the case and dial belong together. I don't have a case number.

Yep it's fine.

This would also be in the same era as the Hans Wilsdorf watches.

Some of them got Wilsdorf Movements. Basically the same movement with an added cap jewel on the upper escape wheel.

Nice watch!

No reference number. It's basically a 2280 but it uses the large barrel crown. Back of the case middle is absolutely flat no concave.
