Don't recall seeing a numbered UG movement in a Dennison case...

doesn't even look like it fits? Or are we assuming the spacer was lost?

No, just showing in on top case as that is how case opens up ... it all fits together perfectly.

Can't say that I've seen one before either. Can you confirm, for Mark's benefit 🙂, what the movement number is?

I would expect that in a ref 2128x with a 862/863k serial

What would that be, around 1941 ? Could be. Lots of stuff was going on around that time with Rolex and Omega movements ending up in Dennison cases, why not UG ...

the only thing i find strange is that there are no other documented "cases" (get it 😎 ? cases) ...

There are more Dennisons but I don't think anybody has ever tried to make an overview. Anyway: I would not spend too much time on this one...
