REMARKS: P.H. Huguenin Locle Swiss Chronograph Pocket Watch Movement with 30min Register/Counter.  From the movement layout it also can be identified that this was made by Agassiz for P.H. Huguenin.  This is a scarce and interesting chronograph mechanism with 30min Counter at 12 o’clock.  Chronograph functions are controlled by column wheel mechanism with the spring and levers made in flowing lines which makes the movement very pleasing to the eye.

CONDITION REPORT: Condition-wise the movement winds and runs.  Since it’s missing the winding stem we can’t test time setting.  The Chronograph function works occasionally but the reset will not return to zero.  We do not guarantee or have any warranty for movements used for parts.  Cosmetically the enamel dial is in good condition with an outer edge chip at 9min position.  The original hands have some discoloration and the movement has some surface tarnish issues.  Stem is missing from the movement.  Diameter is 43mm.
