The bridgework isn't consistent with what we normally see in a Universal. Not to mention that the movement is unsigned and the improbable dial layout is inconsistent with the jeweling on the back of the movement.
As was pointed out above, unless there were some truly amazing modifications made to the dial side, I don't know how this thing even functions.
And even if you were prototyping, why would you put a crown and tube right next to the balance wheel?
Short of some spectacular additional piece of information, I would suggest that if you want to do some further homework on this piece that you check out some of the Frankenwatches that have been discussed on the forum. In particular, you may be interested in the Peruvian and South American varietals.
