Indeed, [mention]yoda[/mention].
And the wheel is signed Cortebert.
In think this indicates the transition between Cortebert to Unitas.
AFAIK Unitas bought Cortebert at some point and was then bought by ETA.
It seems that this movement demonstrates one puzzle piece in the development from the Cort 616 to the ETA 6497

It's a smooth transition! Good looking movement.

47mm big egi at QC pics level from Silix. I didn't see any big issue, except for the bezel insert 15 mins being mounted at slightly wrong angle, it'll be removed and reinserted anyway. Do you see anything wrong gents?ImageImageImageImage
