Felsa 465N
DescriptionFelsa was a manufactury, which was known for their quality movements. The large caliber 465N with 11 1/2 lignes was one of them. It has got a direct driven center second hand and a kind of sandwitch construction, which allows larger sizes of the parts and thus higher precision and longevity.

A speciality of this movement unfortunately cannot be seen in the pictures: The pallets of the anchor are made of a almost translucent, a very little blueish material. Probably this was better (and more expensive) as the normally used synthetic rubies.

In contrast to caliber465, the caliber 465N has got a little cruder bridges.

Sadly, the movement shown here has got a broken mainspring. But that\'s just a minor issue for the otherwise very nice movement.
