Dan,

A shot in the dark, Swartchild lists the bits of a 857 cal 7.75 ligne movement. The bits fit pretty close and also in comparison to the 89 cousin you mention. Also the green book references the 857 as an 18 jewel.

Some more to ponder. I can try to get a better scan, my scanner seems a little off. Cheers!
