Buren 350

Description

What a masterpiece! This tiny ladies’ movement contains everything of a high quality movement: Jewels in chatons, 23 jewels, screw balance and a large regulator hand. Its name “Grand Prix” carries this movement rightly. Unfortunately, the scan cannot properly show the beauty of this polished and decorated movement.
