Description
The FHF (Standard) caliber 96, a men’s size movement, which was used frequently, is a direct relative of the vintage FHF 67, althogh the shape and decoration of the bridges is much more modern.
The center second hand is driven directly; the ring balance does not have a long regulator arm, but a quick release mechanism for the hairspring regulator - a very useful detail for a service.
On the dial side, you see the familiar yoke winding mechanism.
