Can someone comment on this (for me unknown) Landeron movement and the handsize related to it.

I acquired a watch most likely from the 30s or early 40s without minute/hour/second hands.

The diameter of the watch is around 37.8mm and the movement seems to be a huge Landeron movement.
Size of the movement is between 34-35mm and it has a 7 coloumn wheel.

It has 2 Pushers, 30 Minute Subcounter on 3 with Sub Second Counter on 9.

I would have thought it is a Landeron 3 (34.7mm diamter) - but it is not adding up 100%

Can some expert please elaborate which Landeron movement this - and then it would be good to know the dimension of the Hands.
Would really appreciate the help.

I checked also on Rannft and couldnt find the exact movement - as on Rannft they usually indicate Handsize.

Hello, the movement looks not to be complete. I am not sure what movement just looking at it here. I would have to check some books.

Ah the subtleties of Landeron movements.

Mine are all variations of 48 and 51. 18 or 19 movements and no two seem to be exactly alike.

Would not mind having a column wheel for completeness.
