Could you have taken a worse picture?

There is a reason for the first picture.

Two hours in, time for some clarity.

Good fun this Jim...as a newbie I am limited to basic newbie questions😀

1. Is your photo a close-up picture of a watch movement?

2. Is your photo a close-up picture of a watch dial?

3. Is the watch Swiss Made?

4. Is it something that dates before 1970?

Does it have more than one crown?

I'm thinking the gear/wheel there is for adjusting a chapter ring📖

Is the black not crown thingy a ratchet wheel or a crown wheel?

I'll break the Yes No rule just once.

Sort of.

Remember the rules.

The First Rule: You don't talk about the answer.
The Second Rule: See the First Rule.

I like this thread. I'm stumped though...
Couldn't spot the screw heads in the first pic; now they are obvious. Weird.

You can't leave us hanging and go to bed!

Get the red bull out - we need an all-nighter! 😉

Looks the same as the first picture to me (only clearer). Cant imagine chicks ovulating over this...well, normal chicks...😁...(but who digs normal chicks?)

Is it part of an alarm mechanism?

Is the picture of the dial side of the movement?

Does it have an automatic winding mechanism?
