Emes 15

Description

The Emes caliber 15 is a very typical 10 1/2 ligne sized after-war pin lever movement from Germany. In terms of construction it is more or less equal than similar movements of Lord/AHS or Eppler.

The movement is made in a pier construction, has got a subsecond hand at “6” and is wound with a rocking bar winding mechanism on the dial side.

Nevertheless, there’s a small difference to the other movements: The balance in beared in two Trishock-like shock protection systems.
