Greetings,

Would appreciate any commentary regarding Cal. 452 from about '41. I'd not seen one before.

Appears identical to Cal. 450, however bridge finish is rough.

449 is a 450 with sub secs.

Thank you for writing.

Yes this 453 is identical to the Cal 449 with a naked eye, save the bridges are relatively unfinished.

However, please, have you before seen a Cal 452? Do you have an idea why it received a different Ébauche number?
... manufactured relatively early in about '41(Basha). This is the first I've come across.

Thanks.

I can't say that I have seen one!
