Case number 14784 GENEVE 1871. This watch is running strong with good time keeping. Some describe this ovement as "neuchâteleuse" Le Locle style (Ebauche made of Piguet Frères). The feature that identifies this movement as one from the Le Locle and Le Chaux de Fonds area is the formation of circle of bridges around the balance wheel. Zantke in his book on Louis Benjamin Audemars calls these Audemars movements. This firm made a lot of rough movements, ebauches. They were in Le Brassus which is South of Neuchatel. Le Brassus is a very small Village but is home to Audemars Piguet and also had C H Meylan and Louis Benjamin Audemars |
