I think you are missing a digit on the movement serial #. The case reference number will be stamped on the inside of the case back.

Hi. If there is nothing stamped on the inside of the case back, usually Exxx for a screw back case, you'll have to contact JLC for the reference number. A 1.2M movement serial # corresponds to circa 1956.

On further examination I did find a 1800/c under the mainspring.
