Apparently, my google-fu is weak in this regard. Various combinations of Paul Buhre + movement came up empty.

·Felsa made the Bidynator movement. Famous caliber.
Import code is irrelevant to the movement manufacturer. KOS is just the Paul Buhre US import code.

·Here is a movement from a Paul Buhre watch from the 50's. Did PB make their own movements or buy from an outside vendor. If from a vendor, can anyone identify this?
thanks

·Hello @arturo7, "Bidynator" automatic movements were made by Felsa, and were the first successful bi-directional automatic movements -- i.e., the rotor/oscillator was capable of rotating 360 degrees in either direction, as opposed to a "bumper" automatic. The first Bidynators were introduced in 1942 and were marketed until 1968, I believe. The movement should have the Felsa hallmark and a model number, which is typically located beneath the balance wheel or directly to the left or the right of it. The model number should help you narrow down the production date. You might find the following link helpful. Cheers and happy hunting! Bidynator - Chronopedia
Thank you!!
