Received this one in for service, and not one you likely see often so I thought I'd share:

Here it is disassembled - yes quite a small movement, and thin enough I wondered if it was quartz when it arrived, but it's not:

The Cal. 625 manual wind keeps quite good time actually:

All cleaned up and starting the extended timing checks today:

And the cal 540 and 700 were thinner yet.
