    Ordered this watch only because I had never seen a movement like it.

    In an olde Paul Peugeot that looks like it will clean up and is in running condition.
    The positioning of the + to - markings and use of the tip of the adjusting arm as the indicator is something I've not seen before.

    Any information on this or similar movements is welcome. I've found nothing online so far.

    Looks like something similar to the Seiko 66A?

    That does look like it for sure. sieko 66a.jpg

    Found a image of a movement from a Paul Peugeot that looks like the one I purchased.
    Heres what the seller says about the movement.
    "
    Brand: Seiko private label movement
    Model: Marked M-200 Seiko 66A
    Vintage: 1960s
    manual-wind
    sweep second
    10.5''', Dm= 23.6mm
    H= 3.85mm
    17 jewels
    f = 18000 A/h
    power reserve 45h"
    Its actually marked F 200 rather than M 200.

    A bit worse for wear.

    So the Paul Peugeot brand had been sourcing movements from Asia in the 60's I take it. Either bought from Seiko or from a subcontractor, or perhaps just a knock off.

    Another 66A in a Westclox
