Can u help identify this movement?

Hi all,

Need your help again. I am about to sell a couple of minty 70s chronographs from my collection, an Iaxa and a Gabriel and I don't know what movement is in the Iaxa.

Here's the Gabriel and the movement is clearly marked.

Now here is the Iaxa (with its very spacey original bracelet 😀)

And a few shots of the movement.

The Laxa looks like a 1970s watch on grandma's bracelet lol

From the dial layout and the microscopic details you show us😉 , this looks like a Valjoux 7750

The first one looks like a Lemania 5100 (same as the Omega 1045)

Certainly a wider shot showing the whole movement would help, but it certainly looks like an older 17 jewel version of the 7750.

Cheers, Al

The first one is a Lemania 5012 as printed. Not often seen it is a slow beat 5100 @21600 instead of 28800. Seen in several military chronos.
The second is a pucka valjoux 7750.
