Fix Watch Co. Chronometro Repeticion 1a Clase. It was designed by Charles Barbezat-Baillot around 1910, he was considered an innovative maker of repeaters and also supplied companies like Audemars & Fréres, Invicta, Le Phare and Angelus. You can distinguish Le Phare from Angelus or Invicta movements by the balance cock or the cross shape in the centrifugal governor cage. These watches were built for the Spanish market and sold by the jeweler "El Trust Joyero" in Madrid. It is a solid 3-lid gold case made of 18 carat yellow gold (750/-), diameter 55 mm, with a total weight of 134g. The beautifully hand engraved case has a small dent on the outside between the twelve and one o'clock positions. On the front it bears an engraving of a coat of arms. The fine chronometer movement has as complication a minute repeater, a full calendar with display of date, day of the week (Spanish), month (Spanish) and the moon phase and a stopwatch up to 30 minutes (chronograph). The striking mechanism is released at the push of a button and strikes the hours, the quarter hours and the minutes after the last quarter hour. The movement is functional (amplitude of approx. 300°) and all operations switch perfectly at the right time. Nevertheless, the movement would have to be overhauled once, since the bearings are dry and dirty, a tone spring would have to be straightened and the dent in the case would have to be pressed out from the inside. The movement is in very good condition, no corrosion or rust, screw heads with minimal signs of use. The white enamel dial is without chips and without cracks, the blue enameled moon phase with starry sky and engraved moon as well. All hands are made of blued steel. The watch has a shatterproof plexiglass.it was examined by the expert and classified as a very interesting collector's item. Shipping is fully insured.
