Hi Everyone.....

Came across this movement ... it runs but if I had to guess a watch maker left this movement too long in cleaning solutuion and the finish is just about all gone.... but this is such a cool movement .....

20j adjust 8 positions....

What I have...... please dont laugh.....



What it was ......

Found this one the net ...

AUDEMARS PIGUET / Cal.VZASC Valjoux raw movement



Now I need a case .... and will be good to go !!!!!

I will bring this back to life... as it kicking and screwming from the bottom of the rusty tool bin.

Good Hunting

I have this movement somewhere in a box. Got it and some IWC / Omegas from a guy who crushed watches for the gold cases. Odds are long trying to find a gold case 🙁
That said, I got the movements for pennies on the dollar. 😀
That said, he removed them with a hammer and crowbar. 🙁

I love the copper hands on this model - best wishes finding the parts necessary to get it back close to its original state
