Hi,

Could anyone provide me with any info on the movement type on a Maurice Lacroix Les Mecaniques Automatic Ref 52296

I've attached photos of the watch in question...

Thank you
Sid

 

Hi Sid,

With a little light googling you can find that this model ireference 52296, contains an ETA 2876.

 

okay from what i've found on calibre 12 (engraved on top of back case as you can see in image):

http://www.boley.de/en/kaliber/kleinuhrwerke/maurice-lacroix/9834?q=maurice

and according to that :

brand MAURICE LACROIX caliber 12
size 10 1/2 function SS
version 1 Eyes (6) hands 0.80x1.30x0.27
stem 5029 stem (subs.)
stem (2 pce) 22001 /f.Schr.Reif 0.90

Artno. brand caliber size special function hands
156700 ETA 7001 10 1/2 1 Eyes (6) SS 0.80x1.30x0.17

partno. caliber description Artno.
401 Winding stem 8025029
723 Balance staff, pivoted 80222004
723 Balance staff ST -shock-absorber 80222003


So, not sure if my Googling skills were on point, i also find no info on ETA 2876?

Please correct me if i'm mistaken....

 

I didn't look that closely tbh... if you had movement shots you'd be able to compare it against the 7001 shown on boley.

 

Alright... unfortunately no movement shots, hence my question on the forum.
I will check if/when i can get movement shots...

thanks tyrantlizardrex - your response has just made me more curious.

 

This listing mentions a 2876: http://www.ebay.de/itm/MAURICE-LACR...ES-DAY-amp-DATE-DAMEN-UHR-52296-/231623151892Purchases made through these links may earn this site a commission from the eBay Partner Network

That could be a typo of 2678 though, given this listing on Boley: http://www.boley.de/en/case-parts/maurice-lacroix/298

 

could be a typo on the eBay listing? alright just wanted to reference the movement...

Also, would an ETA 2891 be quartz or automatic? based on my googling i find it as automatic in all results
