Too large a movement for a build, but a beautiful pocket watch in its own right. Never seen a Cal 330 movement; anyone know what is different from the usual Cal 540 in these?
Could be cortebert 534 too...similar to 540 and 548...

540 and 548 have bridges like 618
532, 534 and 536 have a way different bridges

Picture of 536 from Ranfft is wrong, there is a 536 engraved but it is not 536

You are right, 532 and 534 are almost identical except size, 540/548 have different bridges than 53x...

OK ... which one of you characters snapped this one up? https://www.ebay.com/itm/VINTAGE-ANGELU ... 7675.l2557

The seller told me he already had offer for over 150 pounds ... I know someone here was after that shock bridge!

Has this guy been modifying the common corts 616 with incablocs or something? He has a new one for sale every month...
